I don't think that actually happened. Nash booked a Nitro with no wrestling in the first hour, like as soon as he got the book.

I remember somebody saying that they saw Conrad holding court in the crowd with a little circle of admirers at one of the Starrcasts and never looked at the actual matches once. I genuinely don't think he has actual opinions on wrestling beyond whatever gets the other guy on his podcast to talk more. It's just a successful hustle alongside whatever that scam is that lets people pay off their houses sooner or whatever.

its works all the way down brother

Went to the toy store and talked to the owner, the collection came from some Kevin Nash super fan that passed away last year. Eventually his brother got tired of holding onto the lot and sold all of it. Additional stuff I saw

• An entire stack of never used Nitro Party red cups
• Multiple sealed boxes of Kevin Nash air fresheners (various designs)
• Not only every official Kevin Nash action figure ever made, but multiple high quality custom Nash figures for Hasbro and LJN
• Multiple Kevin Nash action figure prototypes
• Anything you can fathom being signed by Kevin Nash. Newspapers, basketballs, PPV posters for PPVs he wasn't on
• A very embarrassing Big Sexy license plate to go along with the frame above
• Multiple Kevin Nash masks and Halloween costumes
• Kevin Nash clocks, erasers, pencils, keychains, VHS tapes, napkins, party supplies, etc
• Just so much non-toy WCW junk that the owner is just taking offers or planning to offload it for near nothing

Even before talking to the owner, I figured the guy who owned this stuff had to have passed away or had something catastrophic happen. You don't put this much love and time into a Big Sexy collection and get rid of it for no reason.

I bought a huge box of WCW magazines and a set of these 4.5 inch WCW figures I never even knew existed

I haven't seen any of the matches, but I think it's cool that he had a pro wrestling redemption arc two decades later due to his own actual passion for the craft and desire to clean up his WCW legacy.
