Following on from the comments made by Kevin Nash during an interview with Grantland.com where he stated that Eddie Guerrero and Chris Benoit winning WWE’s top titles was the death of the business, several wrestling personalities have come out and responded to those comments.

Jim Ross: “I’m an old school guy who thinks that wrestlers come in all shapes and sizes and that the final, final decree on how well said talents produce is ultimately left up to the consumer aka the fans. Lots of sub six feet tall athletes have been huge box office draws in the biz over the years. There are too many to mention here. No, I don’t agree with Kevin on his smaller wrestlers theory as I like all that have true talent, but I do defend his right to express himself and chuckle at the ability that he has to manipulate fans and peers alike in 140 characters or less.”

Smith Hart: “I can understand where Kevin Nash is coming from, but I wonder where Shawn Michaels and X-pac fit into his theory.”

Chavo Guerrero Sr: “Nash remain a f****** moron idiot just because he was a freak and bigger than normal people he stll has no clue wt a wrestler .. entertainer or worker is my grandson that i am training now cld have a better match than him, idiot i can take his fat a** down now .. cant do a promo and if u saw his last promo in WWE with punk punk punked him he had no clue wt a waste of body maybe .. maybe his a syncronized wrestler diesel my a**.”

Lance Storm: “Everyone flipping out over what Kevin Nash said are being worked. Nash says thing to get people talking, he is a very smart worker. Someone saying something doesn’t make it true, so relax and quit being pavlovion dogs. Have faith in your own observations. If a tree falls in the forest… Or better yet “If a remark is made and no one reacts, does anyone care? #NotWorthTheEnergy.”

Roddy Piper: “I love all the real deal boys in biz. Fact, I’m one of the smallest. Fact I out drew almost everyone. Fact,Without ALL the boys, I’m nothing.”

MVP: “Kevin Nash is right. Smaller guys don’t draw. I mean who would pay any money to watch itty bitty guys like Mayweather or Paquiao? Let the record show, I LIKE @RealKevinNash he’s always been cool to me. I just don’t agree with his opinion. Doesn’t mean we’re hostile. I’m not upset at all. I just sarcastically expressed a difference of opinion. Nash has always been real cool to me.”
