Description: In 1996 there was the unforgettable Monday Night Wars. A major battle waged between two of the biggest wrestling companies of all time; Vince McMahon's WWE and Eric Bischoffs WCW. Both men had their soldiers and when two of those soldiers jumped from one side to the other it completely changed the face of the war and even helped win the battle for a substantial amount of time. RF VIDEO sat down with one of those soldiers in his very first shoot interview that has teeth. You can call him what you want; Master Blaster, Oz, Vinnie Vegas, or Diesel, but we will call him BIG SEXY KEVIN NASH!!!! This exclusive interview started off talking about Kevin's early start in WCW and how he was trained by Jody Hamilton. Kev went into all his crappy gimmicks and talked about which booker gave each particularly bad character. He talked about being very green and getting a push early on in WCW. You'll hear how Shawn Michaels wanted Big Sexy in the WWE months before Kevin came there and how Nash ended up getting out of his WCW contract. In a perfect Nash story, Big Sexy actually used the WCW office fax machine to fax the WWE! Kevin discussed what it was like to work side by side with HBK as his bodyguard and how he learned from that experience along with how Nash became friends with Shawn and Scott Hall. We talk about how Nash broke away from Shawn to get his first singles push and what it was like for him to win the title from Bob Backland in the fabled Madison Square Garden. We know you want to hear about how the party scene was back then on the road and Kevin was not scared to tell us all about it. His road stories are some of the funniest we have ever captured on video, including a van ride with X-pac, Hall, HHH (who was sober), Nash, and HBK that almost landed them all in jail. You have to Nash telling the story of all of them washing down somas with alcohol and then going into a diner as the drugs were kicking into effect. A diner with 20 cops in it! Nash talked about all of his major programs in the WWE and, of course, his matches Hall, Backlund, HBK, Bret Hart and Jeff Jarrett. Who could forget about all of the locker room antics of the Cliq? Well, Kevin talked about everything that was rumored to have went down in the locker room when he was there. Did they really tell Vince they were going on strike? Why did the Cliq have heat with Shane Douglas? Did they hate Chris Candido? What happened backstage when Pierre Ouelette refused to job to Nash in Canada? What about the curtain call in MSG, how did that all come about? Did Nash see tension with HBK and Bret Hart, and what were his thoughts on Survivor Series? You'll get answers to all those questions straight from a guy who pulls no punches! Kevin went into great detail on why he quit the WWE and went to WCW as one half of the Outsiders with Scott Hall. Nash took us step by step of why he had a break down with WWE and how he landed his role in WCW as a key player in the New World Order gimmick. You will hear first hand about the meeting with Eric Bischoff at his house. Everything about the NWO was talked about including all of the backstage politics that went on with Hogan. We talk about the locker room fights with Roddy Piper, the in ring shoot with the Nasty Boys, and much more! Was there heat between Hall, Nash and Hogan? We talk about all the key members of the NWO and of course the even crazier drug stories. How out of control was Scott Hall? Kevin painted a clear picture of how out of hand the backstage environment got while Nitro was winning the ratings war. Kevin gave us the skinny on all of the feuds he had in WCW, including his match with Bill Goldberg and what went wrong. Who can forget the infamous one finger pin with Hogan and we found out why that was booked the way it was. How frustrating was it to work with Hogan who had creative control of his own character? Nash talked about his friendship with DDP and the storyline that followed which helped to elevate Page. What did Kevin think of the way Bret Hart was used and how would he have booked the Hitman? Kevin talked about Kevin Sullivan's booking of WCW and of course answers his critics complaints about his very own booking of the company. Nash saw the Russo and Bischoff dynamic off camera feud and gave us his side of the story. Nash really went into depth on what led to the downfall of WCW. Kevin explained how and when he found out WCW was bought by McMahon and how he sat out for a year. Just great stuff as he talked about how he was offered a buy out of his contract and basically told WWE to stuff it. Nash than took us on his journey back to the WWE and why the NWO never worked in "New York." He talked about what happened the day at WrestleMania and how the booking for his match, and Scott Hall's, was completely changed. What did Nash think of Vince this time around? What was it like working with the Rock? Which guys wanted the NWO killed off and why? He talked about his injury that pretty much ended his WWE run and everything that happened behind the scenes during that time. We got Kevin to openly talk about HHH rise to power. You will know by the end of these shoot that we left no rock unturned. We closed the THREE HOUR shoot with Nash's thoughts on the current scene in wrestling. Kevin talked about TNA and working with all the X division guys. Big Sexy gave us his opinion on the independent scene along with current crop of WWE headliners including John Cena and Batista. This was one of RF VIDEO's best shoots to date and we felt Kevin was open about every question we tossed his way, no matter how controversial.
