Nobody got "worked" because this isn't going to lead to anything.

Nash must "work" people in everyday life. He goes to the supermarket and asks "how much is this loaf of bread?". When the staff tell him, he laughs and says "haha, you got worked....I don't even like bread and had no intention of buying some!!!"

I love how Nash will say dumb shit, then when people call him on it, he insists he was "working the marks."
So either he's full of shit and refuses to accept that reality, or his life is so dull and boring (or he's just such an attention whore) that he says dumb shit just to sit back and watch the reaction.
Either way, he strikes me as a tool.

Eddie Guerrero was more over in WWE than Kevin Nash ever was.

I just don't understand the notion of people getting worked up by someone's comments, especially if they're supposed to be washed up/out of touch/etc.

twitter.com/The305MVPMVP wrote the following on Twitter in response to Kevin Nash's comments about smaller wrestlers not drawing: "Kevin Nash is right. Smaller guys don't draw. I mean who would pay any money to watch itty bitty guys like Mayweather or Paquiao?" I am not MVP's biggest fan, but that was rather wise what he said. He is on point.

Now you're changing your tone to, "I don't see how anyone could get mad just because he said something." Right now it just seems like you're trying to stand above everyone else like it makes you better than the people that are either offended by what he said or confused by your reasoning for coming into the thread to say things like, "Lol at the marks in this thread.' Pick an argument and stick with it.

Piper speaks: www.pwmania.com/roddy-piper-comments-on-nashs-rant-brodus-clay-shows-off-his-fishy-toyz-more#ixzz22yggxEri- WWE Hall of Famer Roddy Piper is the latest wrestler to address Kevin Nash’s recent comments about the wrestling industry “dying” at WrestleMania 20 when Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero ended the show as WWE’s top champions. Piper tweeted on Wednesday: “I love all the real deal boys in biz. Fact, I’m one of the smallest. Fact I out drew almost everyone. Fact,Without ALL the boys, I’m nothing.” Nash must "work" people in everyday life. He goes to the supermarket and asks "how much is this loaf of bread?". When the staff tell him, he laughs and says "haha, you got worked....I don't even like bread and had no intention of buying some!!!" ..and then he buys it and says "SWERVED" Fixed

Way more disappointed in Jericho really. C'mon dude, don't fall into this s***. I said it once and I'll say it again: Benoit and Eddie were his friends. He has every right to defend them on their effect on the business ( Well, Eddie at least for obvious reasons)

He has every right to defend them on their effect on the business ( Well, Eddie at least for obvious reasons) Oh for sure he has that right, but he can just as easily ignore it. Plus his follow-up " hur hur Nash is gonna tear his quad", while kinda funny if a bit overused joke-- hell I've made a Nash quad joke here-- wasn't really defending his friends anymore. I understand the desire to defend dead friends and such, I just hate to see forty year old dudes swiping at each other like junior high school girls via the internet.

I do agree twitter is the wrong way to approach it.
Suggestion: Jericho-Nash shoot fight at Mania this year.

Typical BS from Nash. You dont need to be 7 foot tall to be "larger then life" Flair and Austin were "larger then life" and they were small. No they weren't. They were average sized wrestlers, and still bigger than the average guy on the street. Punk and Bryan are completely normal sized guys, and to Nash that means they won't draw. Austin and Flair were both around 240-250 pounds, that's substantially larger than Punk/Bryan, both of which are hovering right around 200. Look at the biggest stars ever in American wrestling. Hogan, Savage, Austin, Rock, Undertaker, Flair. None of them smaller than 6'1, none of them under 240, and half of them are 6'5 and up, 275 and up. Daniel Bryan is 5'8, 190. I love the guy, but his size does hold him back, absolutely. It's like in the NFL with the QB height argument. You don't have to be 6'5, but damn does it help. And if you're under 6'1, sorry, you're not a starting NFL QB. Drew Brees is the cut off, and it's only because he's mindbogglingly good (and has great protection). I've seen about 14 6'0 QBs in Cleveland the last 9 years, and it's not pretty. I don't know how right Nash is, but really all he's saying that Punk, Bryan, Benoit and Guerrero are too small to be top draws. It's just an opinion, but he didn't mince words and beat around the bush about it, so there's this "outrage". It's pretty ridiculous, not uncommon though.

Nash is a dumbass............some of the draws are.............not that big. See Bruno Sammartino, Bob Backland, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels. Not everyone wants to see the giant who has trouble being able to sell getting his ass kicked.
Yes, in a way, wrestling is a circus freak show, but fans want to be entertained all the same and a giant has to do more because and Nash might want to listen, the average wrestling fan has seen giants all the time. The freak show stops becoming a spectacle when there is nothing new to the table.
