On a recent edition of his “Kliq This” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash criticized Will Ospreay’s recent comments about Triple H on AEW Dynamite.
Ospreay responded to Triple H’s comments on “the grind” by stating that the WWE CCO “is only in the position he’s in because he was grinding on the boss’ daughter.”
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On Will Ospreay: “I hope he’s got a 20-year f***ing deal with AEW. I hope he can f***ing kick a soccer ball. Cody [Rhodes] f***ing beat [Triple H’s] f**king crown with a sledgehammer.”
On if Ospreay went too far by mentioning Stephanie McMahon: “I think that if I’m Ospreay, there used to be old Puerto Rican, down in Puerto Rico, and the f**king phone would ring, and they’d pick up the phone. They’d say, ‘Hey, it’s Nash. What do you want me to tell him? Want me to tell him to f** you?’ ‘No, no. Tell him to come on down. Then we’ll f*** him.’ So that’s where they’re at right now. If you’ve got the balls to f***ing take a shot at the f***ing boss’ wife, and then you got the balls to f***ing show up and ask for a f***ing job, you better f***ing be able to have the balls to take whatever he’s gonna dish.”
On if Triple H would ever look past these remarks in the future to hire Ospreay: “I don’t know. It ain’t like somebody’s throwing a 100-mile-an-hour f***ing fastball. It’s a work. Everything’s a work. I’m sure you can find something…is there a place for him in this f***ing business for Will? Absolutely. I watched his match that everybody said was 11-stars, and I watched it as Kevin Nash, and then I watched it again as somebody that was just watching it. I didn’t watch it with a set opinion. I listened to the people, and Wes was very instrumental in me giving that a chance because he said he took his father, and he said of all the matches, his dad was just like, ‘Wow.’ So I think a lot of that translates in person. I just think that Paul [Levesque] didn’t mention him by name. Therefore, there’s no reason to get a**-hurt. It shows why he’s an indie-riffic guy. It shows why he didn’t make the move. He’s just not…he’s not smart to the business. Jade [Cargill] was.”
In a recent episode of the “Kliq This” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash expressed his criticism towards Will Ospreay’s comments about Triple H on AEW Dynamite. Ospreay had responded to Triple H’s remarks about “the grind” by suggesting that the WWE Chief Creative Officer only reached his position because he was involved with the boss’ daughter.
Nash’s comments on Ospreay were quite strong, as he stated, “I hope he’s got a 20-year f***ing deal with AEW. I hope he can f***ing kick a soccer ball. Cody [Rhodes] f***ing beat [Triple H’s] f**king crown with a sledgehammer.” It is clear that Nash was not impressed with Ospreay’s remarks.
When asked if Ospreay went too far by mentioning Stephanie McMahon, Nash drew a comparison to an old Puerto Rican saying. He explained that in Puerto Rico, when someone would call and ask if they should tell the person on the other end of the line to “f**k you,” the response would be, “No, no. Tell him to come on down. Then we’ll f**k him.” Nash believes that Ospreay’s comments have put him in a position where he must be prepared to face the consequences of his words.
Regarding whether Triple H would ever consider hiring Ospreay despite these remarks, Nash expressed uncertainty. He compared the situation to someone throwing a 100-mile-an-hour fastball, suggesting that it is all part of the wrestling business. Nash believes there is still a place for Ospreay in the industry, but he also criticized Ospreay for not making the move to WWE and questioned his understanding of the business.
Nash also mentioned watching one of Ospreay’s matches, which had received high praise from fans. He listened to people’s opinions and took into account the reaction of Wes, who had brought his father to the match and witnessed his positive response. Nash acknowledged that there is talent in Ospreay, but he believes that Triple H didn’t mention him by name for a reason and that Ospreay’s reaction shows his lack of understanding of the business.
Overall, Nash’s comments shed light on the ongoing tension between WWE and AEW, as well as the importance of being mindful of the consequences of one’s words in the wrestling industry. It remains to be seen how this situation will develop and if there will be any repercussions for Ospreay’s comments.
