Kevin Nash

At 208 cm, Kevin Nash was always going to be noticed, but what I respect is how he refused to coast on size alone. Plenty of giants stomp around a ring forgettably; Nash leaned into charisma, mic work and a sly sense of humor, which is why his WCW and TNA runs landed and why the 2014 Hall of Fame nod feels earned rather than ceremonial. The pivot from University of Tennessee basketball to wrestling to acting shows a guy comfortable reinventing himself. These days his podcast persona, that of a wry elder statesman, may be the most likable version of him yet.
