Kevin Nash Slams Black Wrestlers Over Hulk Hogan Controversy
Kevin Nash didn’t hold back when it came to Hulk Hoganâs critics flipping their stance after his death. âI saw several f**king Black wrestlers that, when Terry was alive, talked nothing but sh*t about him,â Nash said on his Kliq This podcast. âAnd now? Now they praise him.â
He acknowledged Hoganâs use of the N-word was offensive – âI personally found it offensive. It did diminish how I felt because Iâd never heard it from him beforeâ – but said it was hypocritical to attack him while alive and glorify him when dead. âIf you get a pass in death, then whereâs the line?â he asked.
Nash emphasized, âHow about f**k you, man? How about his kids, man? Can you just… lay off the man? Ainât nothingâs going to change now.â
Nash on Hulk Hogan’s N-Word Tape: “Smelled Like a Hit Job”
Kevin also addressed the most infamous scandal in Hulk Hoganâs career – the leaked $ex tape and the N-word use. âI never heard him drop an N-bomb ever,â Nash said. âThe time I hear it is on tape, along with a $ex tape that got leaked. Whoâs to say that wasnât a f**king hit job?â
He questioned the tapeâs legitimacy. âYou get a $ex tape of him f**king his best friendâs wife and an N-bomb in one tape? Iâm smelling a setup.â While Nash made clear he couldnât defend the content, he emphasized the context: âI personally found it offensive. But let he who is not without sin throw the first stone.â
Nash Regrets Not Seeing Hulk Hogan One Last Time: “I Didn’t Have That Chance With Scott Hall Either”
Kevin opened up about a familiar regret – not getting a chance to say goodbye to another close friend before they died. Nash said Hoganâs death brought up painful memories of losing Scott Hall. âThe whole thing was, especially when it first went down, I was still here in Florida. Terryâs two hours from my house. I couldâve gotten in my car and popped over there.â
âEven if I had to put a mask on if he was worried about germs, or talk through the front glass door. I didnât have that chance with Scott either.â
He explained that Hall was alive for 20 hours after his cardiac arrest, âbut he wasnât conscious.â With Hogan, the same opportunity was missed. âIt wouldâve been nice to at least tell him I loved him. Thatâs selfish on my behalf, you know.â
Nashâs voice turned reflective. âI would have needed five minutes. After four minutes of putting each other over, I would have just said, âI love you.â Maybe that wouldâve been enough.â
