He says he feels the best he has in 5-6 years, not he expects to wrestle for another 5-6. Perish the thought!

Hahahaha, this is what TNA is all about. Hold on to the old guys.

Great. That would mean we'd see Kevin in the ring at age 56-57. How many of the four moves he knows will he be able to do then?
Posted By: woody (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 05:03 AM
Umm, Nash didn't say he would wrestle for another 5-6 years, he said he feels better than he has in 5-6 years.

Why this torture, Kevin? Why?

Who did Stevie Richards blackmail to get on the cover?
Posted By: Guest#9485 (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 06:22 AM
As a casual TNA fan, let me just say to Kevin Nash... JUST RETIRE ALREADY. Be a manager, or an interviewer, or a bodyguard, or an authority figure, or SOMETHING else.

I always enjoyed Kevin Nash, hope he sticks around for a bit longer
Posted By: AG Awesome (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 07:37 AM
Nash said he felt better than he had for 5-6 years, not that was how long he was going to continue. I mean... PLEASE GOD NO.

5-6?.....................
Posted By: Guest#6362 (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 08:10 AM
Perhaps you're confused, but Nash never said he'd wrestled for 5-6 more years...he said he felt better than he had in the last 5-6 years.
No way in HELL Nash sticks around that long.

When is the last time Stevie Richards was on the cover of a DVD? How about when it didn't show him getting beaten up?

Very sad news...

Awesome, I cannot wait to watch TNA in my hometown of France.

I cannot wait to get Foley's book. I will be a great read.

hardcore justice looks like a great dvd. I will buy.
Posted By: lopez (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 09:04 AM
Stevie Richards is on a DVD cover in 2010. There's a warm and fuzzy feeling.

And people wonder why wrestling PPV buyrights and tv ratings are down. Guys like Kevin Nash need to go away or become managers. They can't wrestle anymore. Watching guys like Kevin Nash, Sting, etc. makes me cringe because they are just a shell of what they once were. Kevin Nash has really surprised though. He has gotten even more boring in the ring, something I never thought could happen.

so this is basically one big diss to WWE comparing WWECW to heat balls didn't complain when he was getting that check from vince for 2 years dreamer didn't complain when he was jobbing for 4 years and became ecw champion all of a sudden its a rule that any Former WWE performer must diss WWE Let these old has beens go the only man that drew a dime was RVD and even he fucked up the biggest push in his career
Posted By: jamille420 (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 09:31 AM
Nash should have played Zeus in Clash of the Titans. He would have put Liam Neeson's performance to shame.
Posted By: billy (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 09:39 AM
Hey Big Kev...any chance you'll retire when you in the ring is not fun for us, or is just hurting the business and the company? Nah....keep squeezing the life out of another company. That's what you're best at.
Posted By: The Coach (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 09:53 AM
why would anyone purchase hardshit justice???
Posted By: catsa (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 09:56 AM
Good for Nash, fuck the haters.
Guys still cuts better promos then 99% of the guys in TNA and WWE and the guys in great shape atm, looks better then he looked 12-15 years ago.
Posted By: Guest#4016 (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 10:10 AM
Kevin Nash will continue in wrestling as long as companies like TNA will pay him large sums of money to do very little work. He will retire when the money runs out.
Posted By: K-Bob (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 10:41 AM
Where does it say he's going to wrestle for 5-6 more years? It says he feels the best he's felt in 5-6 years.
Posted By: ishbukid (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 10:48 AM
Good for him, he wrestles like my Grandpa plays shuffle board.
Glad he's enjoying it.
Posted By: 7 Foot Geezer (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 11:06 AM
I'm not surprised Kevn Nash reckons he can wrestle for the next 5-6 years, he's not wrestled since the NWO days so he's had plenty of rest.
:)
Posted By: JAK (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 11:13 AM
Good call ESPN. Flair is a former pro-wrestler. Now he's a full-time clown.

Posted By: Guest#3074 (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 11:35 AM
How delusional is Kevin Nash??? Based on that, he's gonna retire AFTER Undertaker
Posted By: SS87 (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 11:43 AM
Nash rules. Get over it!
Posted By: Guest#1727 (Guest) on September 03, 2010 at 12:13 PM
Uh...Nash said he felt better than he has in 5 or 6 years...not that he would wrestle another 5 or 6 years. I sau he has a good 5 or 6 days left in his career.
