"He was killing the guy" – WWE veteran presents a unique take on the Kevin Nash-Will Ospreay Twitter battle (Exclusive)
Former WWE writer Vince Russo recently shared his thoughts on the Twitter battle between Kevin Nash and Will Ospreay.
The two first locked horns on social media after Nash replied to a post pointing out that Ospreay had more five-star matches in the last month than CM Punk, Kurt Angle, and John Cena had in their careers combined. The WWE Legend cheekily asked about Ospreay's merchandise sales, leading to a war of words between the two men.
During the latest episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW, Vince Russo recalled how Kevin Nash changed his working style during the latter half of his career in TNA. He concluded that the former nWo member made more money working a slow, methodic pace than most high flyers of the current generation:
"I always say this about Kevin Nash, bro. I remember working with him in TNA when he was older. I remember, like literally being in the first row on the guardrail there and watching Kevin just throw those knees in the corner. It looked like he was killing the guy," Russo said. "That's all he had to do, bro." (From 26:40 - 27:20)
