A Kliq Reunion

Podcast Heat
About this episode

Fresh off a grueling WrestleMania weekend, Kevin Nash sits down to share a brutally honest, often hilarious look at what it takes to survive marathon meet-and-greet appearances in Las Vegas — fueled only by muscle milk, Gatorade, and a legendary sense of duty to the fans. Kev opens up about the physical grind, the validation he still feels from longtime supporters, and why pushing through the pain is just part of the deal when you’ve lived a life on the road. Expect sharp stories, heartfelt gratitude, and a few incredible survival tactics you won’t believe. But that's just the beginning. Kevin dives into the emotional whirlwind of this year’s Hall of Fame, reflecting on seeing old friends like Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, Sting, and Undertaker, and paying tribute to the special bond he shared with Triple H during the early days of the Kliq. Along the way, he breaks down why this year’s event hit differently — and why, even in a night full of accolades, memories of Scott Hall still hang heavy in the air. Kev also gets brutally honest about WrestleMania’s evolution, today’s WWE landscape, and what it's like seeing the next generation take the torch. Plus, the episode is packed with the signature Kliq This blend of sharp insights and wild sidebars — from booking philosophies shaped by movies like Heat and Cape Fear, to a dead-serious breakdown of why squibs in old Hollywood action scenes just don't cut it. If you want the backstage reality of pro wrestling, the bittersweet highs of WrestleMania week, and a few sharp lessons from a guy who’s seen it all (and lived to tell the tale), you don’t want to miss this one.
