    Just watched the new Kevin Nash YouShoot. Its alright, not great. Nash is just too drunk to be his usual entertaining self.

    But at one part The Rock gets mentioned and Nash calls him gay (not in a joking way too, :pac:) Further states that in the years The Rock has been divorced and in Hollywood, he hasnt been seen with a girl hanging out of him.

    Now, its obvious that Nash doesnt like The Rock. He states that when he came back with Hall and Hogan in 2002, he found The Rock to be a dick. So either Nash let something be known or is trying to start rumors that Rocky is gay because he just doesnt like him.



    My take?
    I don't think The Rock is gay ... but then again he has always been a 'well grommed' bloke as well ... :pac: His eyebrows were even perfectly shaped and plucked back in the attitude era :pac:

    Go to 3.45.

    I remember reading at the time that Nash was pissed off and threw a strop backstage after Rock called him "Big Daddy Bitch".

    I thought it was funny though :P

    I guess Taker is gay for wearing mascara too.
    Nash only says this **** to get attention cause he hasn't anything else to offer but being a tool.

    Our Wrestling Travel brothers and sisters were massively messed around with today:
    This morning's attempted Wrestlemania AXXESS pre-sale was a complete bust once again as we are told VIP ticket sales were not working. Attempts to order the VIP tickets either timed out or were met with a message that they were sold out.

    That, however, is not the case. We have heard from several readers that contacted the IZOD Center, where the event is taking place and were told that as of now, ALL VIP Tickets for AXXESS will be held and won't go on sale until this Saturday at 10 AM Eastern, when tickets go on sale to the general public.

    Obviously, someone needs to apologize because there are, without exaggeration, thousands of annoyed fans right now.

    I read a rumour before that Rock didn't really get on with the kliq, something about HBK constantly in Vince's ear telling him that HHH should have been getting the push The Rock was getting back in 98 or whatever. Maybe they were all just ***** and Rock hasn't forgotten. :pac:

    Shawn badly bullied Rock at an event backstage when the Rock was younger too.

    Dave Meltzer (a buddy of Rock) told this story:
    My two favorite Kevin Nash stories were the time on live TV that he was doing a promo with Terry Funk, where he was the heel and Funk was the face. They had worked the promo out, then Nash totally went against the script, double-crossed Funk, Funk looked bad and then went to the back bragging about how he upstaged and left Terry Funk in the dust.

    The second was for years he would brag in the WCW locker room about how given a chance, he'd do the same to The Rock. He said it so often, Rock knew the story. Then they actually did the promo, and Rock veered from the script and totally buried him.

    The promo occurred the Raw after Wrestlemania 18.

    I can never stand listening to shoots with Nash, the guy loves himself so much it's unbearable. Don't find him at all entertaining either, it's always at the expense of others, innit, tales of how he won out over everyone else?

    Jesus, I felt sorry for Nash when Punk made a show of him but after reading that, not anymore.

    Nash is good craic,wouldn't take anything he says too seriously.Think a quote I read from once was something like ''when my son wants to amuse himself he plays Call of Duty,when I want amuse myself I go on the internet and fool the marks''.

    Thought the Youshoot was good fun.

    Check out Nash's body language when Rock has the mic. Same facial expression with his hands on hips:

    Nash takes himself plenty seriously underneath it all, can't stand that type of bully who tries to disguise himself as the funny guy. The idea of anyone liking Kevin Nash baffles me.

    Lets be honest about Nash, the guy is a prick :p
    But he can be funny and entertaining in the shoot interviews he has done.

    I really can't understand what drives this guy. It is like he has low self-esteem or something. He seems to have to remind everyone that he's "the man", but people like him already.

    I'd say Nash was used to being the main guy backstage at WWF in the mid-nineties and the WCW and was jealous of the likes of the Rock for now having more power with Vince in 2002. As for being annoyed because of what the Rock, in-character, said on TV..:P

    Not to mention that he thinks being gay is an insult...is that really the best he can do.

    Although given how Nash's Kliq buddies tried their best to bury The Rock it wouldn't be so surprising if the Rock didn't take too kindly to him.

    Here is the trailer for the new Dynamite Kid documentary which I think is out in February. Davey Richards narrates it.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWCCPpMp-58


    I've read that Dynamite will attend the premiere of it and that it costs £75 for a meet-and-greet. It's meant to be limited to less than 100 people.

    Manchester. I believe it's the Hilton Manchester Deansgate hotel.

    Very early 90s WCW this and I make excited for it:
    In a TV ad for Wednesday's Main Event Ion show, they showed Cody Rhodes, Dolph Ziggler, Kofi Kingston, Damien Sandow, The Miz, Antonio Cesaro, Darren Young and Randy Orton as the eight participants in the Intercontinental Cup tourament for a shot at Wade Barrett's title.

    Lol, Randy Orton must be at the lowest position in his career since he was a mid-carder. Wrestling for a title that's not even the secondary title.

    I'm expecting him to snap and turn into Hank from Me,Myself and Irene. Looking forward to him calling Miz a ringworm now.

    In fairness to Orton, aside from the backstage stuff that's played influence in the last year, there's been legitimately no room for him at the top of the card.

    The WHC was busy from the second he dropped it, from getting Henry over as a monster, to Bryan becoming the weasal, to Sheamus as Smackdown's Cena, and the only opening was in Show's run, which was quashed to solidify Del Rio's face shift.

    The only time he could've inched in on the WWE scene was in Punk's initial face run as champ, and they weren't going to do that to Punk, since Orton is a legit superstar, and it would've split the crowd, or worse, damaged the two.

    Of course, there could've been roomed made, if needed, but seemingly, it was an easy choice not to, considering Orton's proneness to injury, and the drama that occurred over Summer.

    On a semi-related note, on the supposed staleness of Orton's character. I don't think Orton is a much stale as he is not having had anything substantial to get his teeth into over the last year. It's just been placeholder feud, after placeholder feud, from Kane, to Ziggler and then Del Rio.

    Anyways, it can only help the IC title that Orton's challenge for it, really.
