Kevin Nash talks about Seth Rollins winning championships

WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins has not only conquered the squared circle but has achieved a significant milestone. He might not be aware of winning over the admiration of none other than Kevin Nash. The charismatic Rollins known for his “Freakin'” persona has in the eyes of Nash evolved into a modern-day Macho Man marking a remarkable transformation that hasn’t gone unnoticed in the wrestling world.

Rollins’ remarkable year has seen him rise above a nagging back injury securing and successfully defending the prestigious WWE World Heavyweight Championship. His list of challengers reads like a who’s who of WWE including formidable opponents such as Finn Balor, Shinsuke Nakamura, Drew McIntyre, and Sami Zayn.

However, his most unexpected accolade comes in the form of earning the respect and appreciation of Kevin Nash, a wrestling luminary with a storied career. On the “Kliq This” podcast, Nash openly admitted that he wasn’t an immediate fan of Rollins’ “Freakin'” character. Yet, in a surprising revelation, Nash acknowledged a recent shift in his perspective drawing parallels between Rollins and the iconic Macho Man Randy Savage.

Nash’s acknowledgment goes beyond character appreciation he also commended Rollins for his in-ring prowess emphasizing his exceptional skills and work ethic. The acknowledgment of Rollins as a performer who can “work his fg a* off” speaks volumes about the dedication and talent the champion brings to the ring.

As Rollins gears up for Survivor Series, where he will join forces with Cody Rhodes, Jey Uso, and Sami Zayn in a WarGames match against a formidable team led by Finn Balor, Nash’s words add an extra layer of significance. Survivor Series holds a special place in Nash’s wrestling history from his NWO days, making the upcoming match a noteworthy chapter in Rollins’ career.
