WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash recently shared his insights on the latest episode of his "Kliq This" podcast, now available across all major streaming platforms. A significant portion of the discussion revolved around Larry Zbyszko's assertion that he was the brains behind the iconic NWO storyline.

Nash responded, "The only hiccup with Larry's narrative is that I was already under contract. Pac wasn't. He wasn't joining us. Honestly, this is news to me. I find it hard to believe. The only individuals I ever discussed this with were Eric and Kevin Sullivan.

As Eric Bischoff aptly puts it, if you ask five people present in a room in '93 about an event, you'll get five wildly different versions."

The conversation then shifted to LA Knight's recent jibe at Nash on WWE SmackDown.

With a hint of sarcasm, Nash commented, "I've come across mentions of him taking a dig at me. But I wondered, how is that even a dig? He's implying that I'm a bottom feeder. It took him nearly three decades to make a mark, so he's bound to err.

It seems he's trying to emulate The Rock and Steve Austin, thinking their absence might give him a chance. I've heard he's negotiating a new contract. So, I reached out to Triple H to get the scoop." Nash continued, "Paul (Triple H) was puzzled by this 'kid,' and I use that term loosely.

He remarked, 'Kid? He's almost my age.' I retorted, 'Is your concern more about his dwindling fan appeal or his rapidly receding hairline?' I mean, who in their right mind would choose those sunglasses unless they had questionable taste? Paul's stance was clear.

He said, 'Our negotiation is at a standstill. I'd only sign him for a nostalgia act.' I quipped, 'Like me, as a legend?' Paul replied, 'He's rehashing old acts. I can't offer him the same as those bringing original content to the table.'

" This candid conversation offers a glimpse into the backstage dynamics of the wrestling world, highlighting both the camaraderie and the conflicts that shape the industry.
