Kevin Nash didn’t have flattering things to say about the current generation of WWE stars.
This Saturday, The Undertaker will be taking on Triple H one final time, in a match that doesn’t involve the newer crop of talent. Many believe that the two legends should be helping the new wave of WWE superstars, but according to Kevin Nash in a recent interview with
Sport News, no one cares about the young guys:
“No one cares about the young guys. When I watched Summerslam that (Undertaker and Tripe H) package caught my eye and made me want to see that match. I don’t know if I want to see Roman Reigns versus Undertaker again. What more of a rub can you give than that? He’s [been] given rubs before and they just aren’t getting over.”
Many have blamed WWE’s lack of creating new stars on the company itself for failing to make the newer generation of wrestlers feel as big as guys like Taker or Triple H, but Nash doesn’t see it that way:
"Who would you put in those positions? You going to put Finn [Balor] in there versus The Undertaker? [Seth] Rollins? Who are you going to put?"
"I just don't think there's going to be guys like that anymore. Those guys aren't going to have 30 years in the business. This style won't allow these guys to last 30 years. Rollins already had a couple knee operations, but he's a great worker. I just don't see these guys even lasting 20 years because of their bodies and the concussion syndrome. Now, they (WWE) are doing concussion testing and everything else."
