Kevin Nash Reflects On Booker T Declining To Be A Member Of The Original NWO In WCW

WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash recently spoke on his podcast, “Kliq This,” about a variety of professional wrestling topics including wanting Booker T to be part of the NWO:

“I wanted Booker. I wanted a black athlete. I wanted a black man and Book was a real dude. He always has been. I remember I asked him. I said, ‘Book, would you join the NWO?’ He looked at me and said, ‘Big fella man, Kev, I don’t want to work that fu**ing hard. You guys work every fu**ing house show.’ I said, ‘Alright.’”

Nash also commented on Sting giving him a shout-out on AEW Dynamite:

“He took really good care of me when I was a jabroni. He’s always been my friend. There are guys that are your friends, and there are guys who are your friends because they’re in the business, and Steve was always a friend. He found Christ and he’s in a great place in his life right now.”

“He was a prankster. He loved a good sh*t rib. He got Bagwell one time back when you used to get the USA Today at your front door. Sting went and shit in the middle of Bagwell’s USA Today. Bagwell grabs it. Of course, you’re going right to the dumper when you grab it to sit down and read it. He opens it up and turds fall on him.”

“I think Steve said he left something in the back of their car when they came back from the gym. He had a bag of shit that he put under the front seat and let it simmer for the entire road trip. They’re looking in the glove box and everywhere.”

Speaking of Booker T, the Hall of Famer exclusively spoke with PWMania.com‘s Wade Needham about a wide range of topics, including A&E’s WWE Most Wanted Treasures on Sunday, April 30th 9/8c, Endeavor’s acquisition of WWE, a potential crossover between WWE and UFC, Vince McMahon’s new look, working commentary for NXT, and much more.
