AC: Yeah. So, again, are you interested in taking on that role in TNA?
KN: My answer is this. I have a 13-year-old son who needs a father way more than TNA needs a booker.
AC: Would the demands be that much.
KN: I think it is, because I don't do anything half-assed. If you put me in there, it means I'm thinking about it 24/7. You have to, because when you're lying there in the sun, you get an idea and it's like, "God, that's way better than I thought." And you've got to get up and you've got to write it down. And you've got to change in and so on.
I'm really good friends with [Vince] Russo. And I see what he has to go through and the situation that happened where kind of right before the pay per view, some political things go down, and he's left with a show with a bunch of gaps in it and he's got to do his best to fill it. And those are the things that take years off your life. And at this point, right now, like what we talked about earlier - I'm closer to dying. So, I don't need the stress and they can't put enough zeros at the end of my paycheck.
AC: Do you think you'd be able to do it in some kind of committee atmosphere where it wouldn't be all on your shoulders? Maybe working with Russo?
KN: I told Vince [Russo] when this situation went down, I said, "Hey" - we have always talked, and it's mostly been about my stuff - But I said, "If you have anything that you need to run by - If you want somebody just to run something by to be an ear, as a friend I would always do that." But I, in no form or fashion, want to be calling the shots. It's just not there anymore for me. I mean, if I was out of the ring maybe I could do it. But I'm in the ring, and I'm having fun in the ring. I mean, I love what I'm doing in the Main Event Mafia. My focus is doing that right now. Let somebody else come up with the ideas. I'll perform their ideas to the best of my capabilities.

Yeah he's doing a fantastic job. Man, I can't wait to see more Sharmell vs Jenna Morasca matches.
This is from a full interview, long read but good. At least what I read was, only got about half way through before I realized how long and didn't have time to finish. I'll post it for those interested after finding it out

Kevin Nash is the smartest man in the wrestling business. Period. If you don't agree with that you're a motherfucking moron who needs his diapers changed, has to be fed with a spoon, and cheers for CM Punk.

50 years old and still wrestling in a tent? Doesn't seem to smart to me.
The Rock had like 6 years, great worker, multi millionaire and left the biggest star in the game and went on to more success like nobody in wrestling ever has.

Nash did less than half the work Dwayne ever did and made more than half the money. Only a jackass would suggest that the Rock isn't a bigger star. As for wrestling in a tent, listen to him talk in some itnerviews sometime. He knows his body couldn't take a WWE schedule. He works where he can be comfortable. SMART.

This is what happens when hatred of oneself combines with hatred of the rest of the miserable sacks of shit walking this planet. It's extremely liberating and feels REALLY FUCKING GOOD.

Kevin Nash is one of the smartest guys in the business, look at how much money he's made with his limited talent.
Personally I love the man and think he's hilarious and in his later years speaks alot of truth.
But I'd still like to hear BDC's opinion

TNARICK that was for you. Also, quit slandering Meltzer and slandering us by calling us Meltzer cronies. YOU are the 34 year old who worships a guy that was partially responsible for the death of WCW like a God

I’ve never had a 9-year-old kid come up to me and say, “I think you need to pick up your workrate.”
Tells it like it is. Can't fault Big Sexy.

I still love Nash. I just lost all interest in wrestling. But I knew people were talking about me in here.

went on to more success?
You mean like making cheesy disney movies? Or awful movies you can't stand? Or how about playing a gay guy?
I really don't think he's a good actor, at all.
Although, Kevin Nash is a tool.

You're an idiot. While the Rock may not be making movies that appeal to you, they still appeal to Disney's main demographic, which is children. His movies top the box office when they come out, Kevin Nash and TNA struggle to compete with ECW.

So...you blame that solely on Kevin Nash? Not really him alone dragging TNA in the ground, bucko.
Theres a few more people on that roster.
and Kurt Angle's shitty new look can't be helping things. Jesus he looks 15 years older.

At what point did I claim that that TNA consisted of just Kevin Nash?
