Kevin Nash Talks About His Injuries, Congress & Wrestling, Life After The Ring

In an interview with the Daytona Beach News-Journal, TNA star Kevin Nash talks about a number of of subjects – including his various injuries, Congress investigating pro wrestling and what he wants to do after he retires from the ring.

Nash, who has gone through 13 knee surgeries, says he is constant pain, especially in his neck: “I actually have a couple of bulged discs now,” he told the paper. “It’s actually trying to fuse itself. It’s 24-7. The pain is almost unbearable.”

Nash, who is under contract to TNA until September 2009, discusses Congress looking into pro wrestling related to steroids: “Congress is coming down on us right now hard with the steroid stuff,” Nash said. “There’s still going to be collateral damage from my era of guys. We’ll all lose years off our lives.”

Nash also talks about his future plans after wrestling, and that he would like to branch outside of wrestling so he can save his body to spend time with his kids. Alex Shelley is quoted by the paper as saying Nash has helped him with financial advice.

“I’m trying to figure what the next avenue I’m going to go into — I don’t think I want to do creative as much as I want to do production,” Nash said. “Try to branch out the brand of TNA, start to learn the TV end of it so I can go out and sell it to different countries. More the business aspect of it.”
