"F**k no" - WWE legend completely rules out potential return; reveals major Triple H influence
A WWE Hall of Famer has ruled out a potential in-ring return. Kevin Nash is not interested in wrestling again. However, he's open to working for the company in a different capacity under the creative leadership of Triple H.
Nash has not wrestled since 2018 and officially retired from in-ring competition in 2020. The 65-year-old has made sporadic appearances on WWE television over the years, with his latest being at SummerSlam in the Legends Suite. He also recently made headlines after starting an online beef with Logan Paul.
The online altercation led to speculation that it could lead to a potential match between Nash and Paul, but the legendary wrestler has ruled it out. Kevin revealed on his Kliq This podcast that he's open to working with the Stamford-based promotion if Triple H needed him for something. However, the veteran is not interested in getting back in the ring due to his age.
"I'll go back and see Paul and go. I said I would [return] if Paul needed me for something. I would do it; say they had a project or something like that I found entertaining or something I'd want to do. [Wife] said, 'But not in the ring? I said, 'F**k no.' Then I laughed, and I said, 'Babe, you know I'm 65, right?"' Nash said. [1:32-1:53]
Former WWE writer says Triple H always wanted RAW to be 2 hours
WWE RAW is set to move to Netflix next year. Ahead of the switch from the USA Network to the streaming platform, the red brand recently reverted to being a two-hour spectacle. It's something that Triple H has always wanted, according to former WWE writer and actor Freddie Prinze Jr.
"This is something that Triple H wanted for a very long time. He wanted it or mentioned it when I was there, so at least that long. 2007 was the first time I heard him say, 'RAW would be better if it was two hours,"' Prinze said on his Wrestling with Freddie podcast. [H/T: PWMania]
Monday Night RAW has been a three-hour show since July 2012. The company had to revert to the two-hour format earlier this month as part of a short extension with the USA Network that will last until the end of 2024.
