So we have a Wrestlemania opponent for Hogan (Rocky), and apparently one for Hall (Austin), so what do they do with Nash? Originally I thought they should have gone with Nash/Undertkaer, but I can see why they didn't because they apparently want to keep Undertaker heel. It would have been interesting to see the Wrestlemania 12 rematch, no matter how brutal it would have been.

My guess now is that we get Nash/Kane or Nash/Big Show. You know it's going to be somebody pretty large. I think their best bet would be to put him in there with Austin.

Hall/Austin seemes kinda weird to me. I don't see much appeal to it other than it would probably be the best actual match of all the NWO match ups. And it kinda seems like a step down for Autin since Hall has never really been the main event guy. I think Austin/Nash would be a bigger draw than Austin/Hall. Austin/Nash would be interesting in the fact that Austin kinda took over Diesel's role in the WWF as the bad-ass tweener who doesn't give a damn about authority after Nash left. Austin just did it better. Maybe they will still go with this match. Who knows.

I was thinking the same thing and asked my friend the same thing. So far for wrestlemania you have...

The Rock vs. Hogan
Chris Jericho vs. Triple H
Stone Cold vs. Hall
Flair vs. Undertaker
APA vs. Spike/Taz (atleast for the moment)

My first thought was also Nash vs. Undertaker, but then I thought he should stay heel, and apparently he will. And Undertaker vs. Flair, although it might not be pretty is two legends and is a great fantasy match up. Actually now that i think about it, I think Undertaker should go nWo more than anyone else. Sure he's another old guy and not great worker, but with his "get no respect" angle he has the best reason to turn his back don't you think? Plus he's pals with Vince who as far as we know is still with the nWo.

My next thought was that it would probably be someone like Kane or Big Show like you said.

The only main eventer left is Angle and I doubt we'd see two heels go at it.

I think RVD vs. Nash would be a pretty interesting match up, but it looks like RVD will continue his feud with Goldust as will Edge with Regal.

I'd like to see Benoit get a match with Nash and see how many german suplexes he can get on him, but that will have to wait a while.

I guess the most likely possiblity is that he wrestles Kane or Big Show.

Or maybe he tags with X-Pac instead of Hall and they get in the tag title match somehow.

nash may play the corner person for both nWo matches.... therefore giving them an edge.... but as for who he could wrestle for WM i would root for kane... but i dont see a huge reason for kane to go after the nWo...

maybe the undertaker and nash will mix it up down the road... you better show some respect boy!

There seems to be a lack of faces at the top of the card with the nwo in town. I guess Kane and Show will have to be reinserted into the upper-midcard to feud with some of the heels. Show will probably get Nash I guess.

I'm more concerned about who Kurt will meet at mania now.

I figured that Nash and Hall would team at wrestlemania, so I guess Austin would have to find a partner, which still doesn't answer who. My friend says that the title match will have more than 2 guys, so maybe Nash would be in that.

I'd be very surprised to see Nash in a match any time soon. His foot/knee problems have left him with even less mobility than usual, which wasn't much to begin with.
And depite the visually-slimming black t-shirt, it's obvious he's carrying around a nice little beer belly.
I'm no mathematician, but I think the equation would be:
Put Nash in the ring = Put crowd to sleep.

Maybe he could simply second Hall and Hogan to the ring for their respective matches.

Question...

I never watched WCW much, especially during NWO's heyday, but anyways, is that what Nash's jacknife is supposed to look like?? It kinda looks like he just dropped Rocky. I wasn't sure if that was a mistake, or the way the move is supposed to look. I did, however, remember the Razor's edge...it looked pretty damn good to me!

It's supposed to be a powerbomb. He once dropped someone almost on their head (I believe it was the Giant) and from then on it became more of a "powerdrop". I guess he's just afraid to hurt someone with the real thing.

i still dont know if it was storyline or not... but after nash accidently dropped the giant on his head/neck the giant was out for a few months(i have no clue how many) and nash even stopped using the powerbomb.... when he started using it again (against sting i think) he had switched it to the drop powerbomb or whatever the name was... and that's what he's used ever since.... if i remember correctly....

also... i dont remember hearing that much about nash's leg injuries.. how bad where they?... i was kinda looking forward to seeing him in the ring...

This far back is kind of cloudy cause I don't have a good memory but I believe after Nash injured The Giant (Big Show) with the powerbomb they actually made an angle out of it that the powerbomb was outlawed. Anytime anyone did it they would be fined (and maybe arrested too), then I belive Hogan said that if Nash did the powerbomb he would pay the fine. So Nash still used the powerbomb sometimes and would get arrested and fined, and Hogan would pay for it. Eventually Sting wanted a match with Kevin Nash so badly that he told JJ Dillon to reinstate the powerbomb for the match. I think ever since then he's been using the new version of the powerbomb.


Also, I agree, that was a great Razor's Edge.

To bad Rhyno isn't around to GORE, GORE, GORE the holyshit outta Nash. The Undertaker is too busy to throw Soupbones at Nash, but Kane would be an interesting choice. It would probably mean Nash going over Kane which would suck, because I'm quite the Kane fan.

Can you imagine how much cooler the INVASION would have been with these three in it.

I agree with Moe it will be Nash/Hall vs tag champs but I don't think they will be the APA. I would like to see the Dudleys go over the Outsiders myself...but how cool would it be to see E&C vs the OUtsiders for the title. The WWF really broke up the wrong tag team in my opinion.

Nash as the sidekick would be nice..for an overcoming the odds kinda feel.

Nash vs kane sounds alright..especially is Kane destroys him just because he had to play Diesel
After fucking up the Giant powerbomb they indeed turned it into an angle (I believe 50,000$ for one powerbomb?)

Still I half expect to see the outsiders pop up somewhere..

I personally have always felt that the dropbomb or whatever you want to call it looks rather nasty for the most part.. I recognize it would realistically hurt less than being driven in, but it still has an 'ouch' factor to it that I like.. and since when does realism matter?

Someone mentioned it earlier in the thread, but it

hmm..wasn't it something like six months from now?
I am not sure..could be 'he was shelfed for 6 months and will be back in two'
He basically had his neck fused together just like Austin and Benoit so I guess it will take quite a while..

Here's two suggestions for Nash...assuming Hall gets Austin:

1) Edge - is it safe to say he's not getting that IC belt from Regal? Time to move on to a different program. No worries about Nash getting face pops here.

Or, if you want to hide Nash's "wrestling deficiency,"

2) Maven - I could easily see Nash, just for shits and giggles, challenging Maven for the HC title.
