Below are some top WWE news stories of the day, involving TNA and NXT.
• On his Kliq This podcast, 2-time WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash recalled his time in TNA Wrestling. Here’s what Nash said:
“I had a ball at TNA. When I had to wrestle, I worked hard. I was stoned all the time (laughs), I can’t really speak to… it was like 68 minutes from my house to the backlot.
I was happy at TNA. When you don’t have to get on an airplane to work for a company, I did house shows for them, we did some pay-per-views here and there, but it was so nice because you could do all your other bullsh*t, too.
You could do your side hustle, and it was like a good, solid, steady paycheck that covered your fundamentals, and anything you made after that was gravy.
Plus, you could do a movie, it wasn’t like, ‘Oh, f**k, are they gonna give me the time off?’ It’s like, ‘Yeah, no problem.’ It was cool.
It was come and go as you please, do your f**king gig. You’re not gonna make a million dollars, but (it’s good).”
In TNA, Nash won the Legends Championship twice and also held the World Tag Team Championship (with Scott Hall and Eric Young).

According to Fightful Select, D-Von didn’t join forces with Bubba to hit their legendary 3D through a table because WWE hasn’t cleared him for physicality.
For those who don’t know, D-Von suffered a stroke in November 2020. He also underwent a spinal fusion surgery in 2022.
