Kevin Scott Nash was born July 9, 1959 in Detroit, Michigan. He is an American pro wrestler and actor. Nash has wrestled under various ring names for the WCW, WWF and WWE where he wrestled famously as Diesel, and currently, TNA. Kevin Nash is a six-time World Heavyweight Wrestling Champion, eleven-time World Tag Team Wrestling Champion and one-time Intercontinental Champion.
Nash debuted in TNA Wrestling alongside the returning Scott Hall on November 7, 2004 at the inaugural monthly TNA pay-per-view, Victory Road, with the duo helping NWA World Heavyweight Champion Jeff Jarrett retain his title in a ladder match with Jeff Hardy. In subsequent weeks, the trio identified themselves as the Kings of Wrestling, and began feuding with Jeff Hardy and A.J. Styles. At Turning Point on December 5, 2004, the Kings of Wrestling were defeated by Hardy, Styles, and Randy Savage.
Hall left TNA in early 2005, and Nash and Jarrett separated after Nash made clear his desire to win the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. Nash received a title shot against Jarrett on February 13, 2005 at Against All Odds, but lost following interference from the debuting Outlaw. Following the defeat, Nash joined forces with Sean Waltman and began feuding with the newly formed Planet Jarrett. At Destination X on March 13, 2005, Nash lost to The Outlaw in a First Blood match following interference from Jarrett, who struck Nash with his title belt. The rivalry between Planet Jarrett and Nash and his allies culminated in a scheduled Lethal Lockdown match at Lockdown on April 24, 2005 pitting Nash, Waltman, and Diamond Dallas Page against Jarrett, The Outlaw, and "The Alpha Male" Monty Brown. However, Nash was removed from the card and replaced with B.G. James after contracting a staph infection, which left him sidelined for much of 2005. During his time out, Nash did an interview with WWE.com. He discussed the Shawn Michaels vs. Hulk Hogan match which was scheduled for Summerslam 2005.
