Chris Sabin on his experience working with Kevin Nash
During the interview, we asked Chris Sabin about what it was like working with a pro wrestling legend like Kevin Nash and where it ranks in his career:
Q: Looking back, how was it working with a man like him and where does it rank among everything you’ve done in your career?
A: Well back then, when my feud with Kevin Nash was going on, I was still pretty young in the business. Still in my early 20s. For me, it was really cool because I was getting to work with Kevin Nash, who, not that long ago…I would come home from school and drop in wrestling tapes and I was watching Kevin Nash from the nWo and stuff. Just as a fan and being young, it was really cool for me because got to do a storyline with a guy I’d been watching as a kid.
Chris Sabin feuded with Kevin Nash back in 2006 when Nash was a part of Paparazzi Productions alongside Alex Shelley. The feud gave Chris Sabin a platform to show what he could do and he definitely delivered.
