On a recent edition of his “Kliq This” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash expressed his desire for AEW to prosper and become a credible alternative to WWE.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On giving feedback to AEW: I was able to give some feedback. [Co-host Sean Oliver asks if he got a question from anyone in the clip] I might have. [Oliver asks if he got to impart some Kevin Nash wisdom.] Yes. I don’t know how it landed. To me, I think it was kind of like, okay.”
On his feedback to AEW: “It’s no different than when you see somebody, and they’ve never changed a tire before, and they jack the car up first, and then try to get the lugnuts, and you tell them, ‘Dude, you need to have the pressure of the car’s weight so you can undo the lugnuts]. Just little simple things like that, I don’t think you’re being a di*k. I think you’re being constructive. If you have no idea whatsoever how to change a tire, maybe somebody that’s changed some tires in their life could give you a little bit of a f**king first step. In all honesty, I absolutely want AEW to succeed. Number one, I’ve got friends that work there in production, in all different aspects, not just guys that are in front of the camera. I think their being a viable option is huge for the longevity of the business.”

Nash, who is a member of the WWE Hall of Fame, provided feedback to AEW and shared his thoughts on the promotion’s potential.

Nash compared giving feedback to AEW to teaching someone how to change a tire. He explained, “It’s no different than when you see somebody, and they’ve never changed a tire before, and they jack the car up first, and then try to get the lugnuts, and you tell them, ‘Dude, you need to have the pressure of the car’s weight so you can undo the lugnuts.’ Just little simple things like that, I don’t think you’re being a di*k. I think you’re being constructive.”
The wrestling legend emphasized that his intention was not to criticize but rather to provide constructive criticism. He stated, “If you have no idea whatsoever how to change a tire, maybe somebody that’s changed some tires in their life could give you a little bit of a f**king first step.”
Nash’s support for AEW stems from his belief that having a viable alternative to WWE is crucial for the longevity of the professional wrestling industry. He highlighted that he has friends working in various aspects of AEW, including production, and wants the promotion to succeed.
“I absolutely want AEW to succeed,” Nash affirmed. “Number one, I’ve got friends that work there in production, in all different aspects, not just guys that are in front of the camera. I think their being a viable option is huge for the longevity of the business.”
Nash’s endorsement of AEW as a credible alternative to WWE adds weight to the promotion’s growing reputation within the industry. With his vast experience and knowledge, his feedback could potentially contribute to AEW’s continued growth and success.
As AEW continues to establish itself as a prominent force in professional wrestling, the support and guidance from industry veterans like Kevin Nash will undoubtedly play a significant role in shaping its future.
