Kliq This: The Kevin Nash Podcast

• Between The Rock and a Hard Place

  This week on Kliq This, Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver find themselves smack dab in the middle of wrestling’s most chaotic season — post-Mania fallout, power shifts, prime bottle proposals, and maybe even a babyface extinction event. With The Rock’s latest public comments stirring speculation, Cena's heel turn drawing comparisons to the nWo era, and a few too many people tanning like it’s a contact sport, Kev weighs in with zero filter and even less patience. Beyond the squared circle, the guys get real about the grind of convention weekends, the economics of fandom, and the emotional cost of being the face of a company — especially when Make-A-Wish moments collide with production schedules. Also, don’t miss Nash’s thoughts on the “WrestleMania Roast” transcript leak, Logan Paul’s million-dollar pitch to Austin, and the dangers of letting a Gucci beanie become your entire personality. With stories from the road, jabs at posers, and reflections on legacy, this episode isn’t just wrestling commentary — it’s part therapy session, part roast, part wrestling gospel. And yeah… if you ever wondered what it would cost to get Kevin Nash inside a Prime bottle, you’re about to find out. 00:00 KliqThisTV.com Visit www.KliqThisTV.com for bonus content, vault episodes, and more. 18:31 CarGurus ‣ #1 most visited car shopping site.

• A Kliq Reunion

  Fresh off a grueling WrestleMania weekend, Kevin Nash sits down to share a brutally honest, often hilarious look at what it takes to survive marathon meet-and-greet appearances in Las Vegas — fueled only by muscle milk, Gatorade, and a legendary sense of duty to the fans. Kev opens up about the physical grind, the validation he still feels from longtime supporters, and why pushing through the pain is just part of the deal when you’ve lived a life on the road. Expect sharp stories, heartfelt gratitude, and a few incredible survival tactics you won’t believe. But that's just the beginning. Kevin dives into the emotional whirlwind of this year’s Hall of Fame, reflecting on seeing old friends like Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, Sting, and Undertaker, and paying tribute to the special bond he shared with Triple H during the early days of the Kliq. Along the way, he breaks down why this year’s event hit differently — and why, even in a night full of accolades, memories of Scott Hall still hang heavy in the air. Kev also gets brutally honest about WrestleMania’s evolution, today’s WWE landscape, and what it's like seeing the next generation take the torch. Plus, the episode is packed with the signature Kliq This blend of sharp insights and wild sidebars — from booking philosophies shaped by movies like Heat and Cape Fear, to a dead-serious breakdown of why squibs in old Hollywood action scenes just don't cut it. If you want the backstage reality of pro wrestling, the bittersweet highs of WrestleMania week, and a few sharp lessons from a guy who’s seen it all (and lived to tell the tale), you don’t want to miss this one.

  John Cena’s back on top… and Kevin Nash has thoughts. In this week’s episode, Big Kev breaks down the shockwaves of WrestleMania and why he thinks the ending was more “Hogan in ’96” than the crowd may have realized. From kayfabe power dynamics to merch-moving politics, it’s all under the microscope as Kevin sets the table for what should come next. But before we get into the squared circle, we take a cinematic detour. Michael Mann’s Heat, Kevin Bacon playing a literal devil’s bounty hunter, and how many rewatches does it take to admit Collateral might not hold up? Kev’s got opinions, Sean’s got DVD nostalgia, and somehow Al Pacino ends up with a jobber’s gimmick. Welcome to Kliq This. The boys also break down what it really means to “look like a star” in today’s wrestling climate—whether you’re a 6’10” killer or a 5’1” flipper. Kev doesn’t mince words when comparing Rey Mysterio’s legacy to modern high-flyers, and yes, someone ends up being called a Shetland pony. Is the WWE pricing out the working-class fan? Is Heyman really the MacGuffin that holds the industry together? And why do modern entrances feel more like Coachella sets than fight-night spectacles? Kev walks through the economics, the nostalgia, and the fire (literally) of what makes a great entrance… and why Diesel’s never gotten the love it deserved. And finally, WrestleMania predictions fly fast and furious—including a huge twist involving Cena, Cody, and Paul Heyman. Kev sees the chessboard clearly, even if it ends with someone becoming a “Heyman bottom.” If that line doesn’t get your attention, nothing will.

• The Assassination of John Cena

  This week on Kliq This, Kevin Nash returns from the road with stories you won’t want to miss — including a run-in with the viral sensation Angry Grandma and a peek behind the curtain at Astro Comic-Con. What happens when you mix a wrestling legend, some Juggalos, and a weekend in Ypsilanti? Let’s just say… it gets colorful. With WrestleMania right around the corner, Kev breaks down his upcoming trip to Las Vegas: WrestleCon, Hall of Fame, and a few private signings that might just make some headlines. But don’t expect him in the legends box — and don’t ask him to pretend he enjoys Vegas crowds. This is Big Sexy unfiltered, and he’s got some thoughts. Of course, we can’t talk Mania season without addressing the elephant in the ring: the assassination of John Cena. Is WWE mishandling their biggest crossover star? Did they just bury a potential dream match? Kevin has a strong take — and it might not be what you expect. From Bron Breakker spears to whether Cody Rhodes is actually a heel in disguise, this episode digs into WWE's hottest storylines — but through the lens only Nash can provide. We’re also talking MyRise in WWE 2K25, what makes a good promo, and why scripted segments are slowly sucking the soul out of wrestling. And if you’re wondering what happens when Nash sees someone so stunning he forgets his Red Stripe? Or why he still cringes at modern promos delivered like monologues at a community theater audition? You’ll want to hear every word. Kliq This drops every Monday — don’t be late to the party.

• "Don't tell me I have to Boycott Wrestlemania"

  In this episode of Kliq This, Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver take an unfiltered tour through everything from Monday Night Raw’s explosive storylines to wild road stories and fan interactions. They swap thoughts on John Cena and Cody Rhodes’ promo dynamics, discuss why Logan Paul and AJ Styles might steal the spotlight, and even dissect the eccentricities of TNA’s six-sided ring. Between tales of annoying traffic stops, traveling for signings, and fans who push the boundaries, the laughs come fast From there, the conversation swings to the mania of Monday nights—John Cena, Cody Rhodes, the art of promos, and how one finishing move on television can make or break a storyline. Kevin breaks down why sometimes, less is more when it comes to in-ring physicality, offering nods to the old-school days when rivalries simmered just enough before a pay-per-view blow-off. In that same breath, he praises the spectacle of the modern product, zeroing in on potential show-stealers like Logan Paul and AJ Styles. Sean fuels the discussion with questions about nostalgia, six-sided rings, and whether playing fantasy booker with comedic flair can still make for serious talk about the business. Peppered through it all, there’s everyday life: a ticket from a less-than-pleasant cop, the joys of not having to dress up for work, and the tribulations of being asked for handouts by people who assume “wrestler money” never runs dry. As they crack jokes about everything from silly travel hassles to cameo appearances by old friends, one question remains hilariously unanswered: “Where’s Rhea?” Though you might not find her here, you’ll find plenty of wild tangents, insider perspectives, and that easy chemistry only two old friends can bring. This episode proves once again that wrestling talk is best when it’s raw, real, and just a little bit ridiculous. • BRUNT (29:08) Get $10 off at BRUNT with code KLIQ at https://bruntworkwear.com/KLIQ • Mando (53:46) Control Body Odor ANYWHERE with @shop.mando and get $5 off your Starter Pack (that’s over 40% off) using promo code KLIQ at https://shopmando.com (#mandopod ) • The Perfect Jean (01:14:59) F*%k your khakis and get The Perfect Jean 15% off with the code KLIQ15 at https://theperfectjean.nyc/KLIQ15 (#theperfectjeanpod) • BlueChew (01:32:15) Visit https://BlueChew.com and try your first month FREE when you use promo code NASH—just pay $5 shipping. • Get Blitzed (01:36:00) Save 15% at https://Get-Blitzed.com by entering the code KLIQ at checkout. • PrizePicks (01:37:51) Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/KLIQ and use code KLIQ to get $50 instantly when you play $5. 00:00 KLIQTHISTV.com 00:22 SHOW OPEN 00:56 iO Sky 02:19 Back on the ROAD 05:06 I’LL DO A TOOT 05:48 I’m down 48, Kev jacked…looks like he gained about 48 07:22 Maven 08:57 Justin Credible 16:25 RAW in London 17:52 Cena ate him alive. 23:24 How do we make the promo better? 26:53 Cena’s Wardrobe 29:08 BREAK BRUNT 32:52 Wrestlemania Tickets 34:27 False Start 36:44 Why Cena/Cody shouldn’t touch 37:28 Silk sheets made him finish 39:23 horror convention! 39:51 consummate professional 42:54 Hating RUSH 43:55 That cop should not have ticketed you 48:52 TNA 6 sided ring 50:15 Logan Paul/AJ Styles 51:19 BACK TO 6 sided RING 53:46 BREAK MANDO 56:52 DELTS 57:19 DELTA 57:55 Cena off RAW? 58:48 Usos/Gunther 01:02:24 Rhea/Bianca 01:05:42 CM Punk Main event? 01:07:24 Putting your match together 01:12:35 Wrestlemania Betting Odds 01:14:59 BREAK THE PERFECT JEAN 01:17:26 MARKET NEWS: FUCKED. 01:20:24 Auto Manufacturing cost 01:21:50 Tariffs 01:28:50 Fox News 01:32:15 BREAK BLUECHEW 01:33:40 FL vs NJ 01:36:00 BREAK GET BLITZED 01:37:51 BREAK PRIZE PICKS 01:40:21 ASKNASH 01:40:47 Pre-workout? 01:41:20 WCW Power Plant 01:43:09 No DQ Match for Jey? 01:45:27 Mick Foley car crash 01:46:23 Dick Durdock 01:47:09 Tattoos on women? 01:48:42 Studio Ghibli’d 01:49:36 OUTRO
