Contract Negotiations

Podcast Heat
About this episode

This week on Kliq This, Kevin Nash sits down with Sean Oliver and opens up about the toll of endless travel, film shoots that collapse before they even start, and the kind of business dealings that make you wonder how anyone keeps their sanity. The conversation doesn’t stay surface level for long—it turns into a raw look at the grind, the frustration, and the strange balance of chasing opportunity while trying not to get taken for a ride From movie productions falling apart in Syracuse to Comic Con appearances overseas, Kevin pulls the curtain back on what it really feels like when you’re promised one thing but handed something very different. Money, contracts, and broken deals aren’t just business—they’re battles over respect, loyalty, and how much your name is worth in a world that rarely plays fair But the episode isn’t just about numbers and negotiations. There are detours into locker rooms that smelled like desperation, NBA salaries that make today’s contracts look surreal, and even Brett Hart invoking Kevin’s name in ways that spark a whole new discussion about loyalty and perception inside the wrestling world As the talk deepens, Nash lays bare his complicated relationship with WWE, what kept him loyal longer than he expected, and the point at which loyalty turns into leverage. Questions about who should lead the company in the future, whether Sean Michaels could ever step into Triple H’s shoes, and how friendships change the way business gets done all find their way into the mix By the time the conversation wraps, you’re left with more than just stories. You’re left with a glimpse into the psychology of contracts, the unspoken cost of fame, and the kind of perspective that only comes from surviving decades at the top of two industries that chew people up. It’s not nostalgia, it’s not bitterness—it’s Kevin Nash talking plainly about the price of playing the game BlueChew-Visit BlueChew.com and try your first month of BlueChew FREE when you use promo code NASH -- just pay $5 shipping.
