Kevin Nash the Booker...Why does he have a bad rap?

Besides the fact that WCW was a tire fire, which i started before his time and remained after...

Why do people give him such shit? I see alot that people say he booked himself to end the streak and beat Goldberg, but most reports are now that he didn't get the book until 6-8 weeks After that.

The streak needed to end at some point to try to add some depth to Goldbergs story line, so wouldn't it make sense that one of the few people bigger and stronger (Kayfabe) be the one to do it, and they even had it not be clean.

But anyways, if that wasn't his call what were the horrible stories that he takes blame for?

Once they signed russo to take over, thats when WCW fell off a cliff. Their money management had been fucked long before that. The biggest Politician was Hogan. What was really his fault?

I think Nash has one of the best minds in the business, and any time he puts something out, people go straight to "if he knows the business so well why did he book WCW into the ground".

I dont buy it. I think he probably did the best of what he had, while having to manage Hogan, Savage and Flair. He actually seemed to have cared about the undercard and during a time where 50 year old men wouldn't let themselves be booked to lose clean, Nash, a 7 foot 350 pounder put over 5'4'' 150 pound Rey Mysterio CLEAN.

I think this is just one of those "Mark Truths" that someone said once and they ran with it.

Prove me wrong.
