Kevin Nash Recounts Being “Pounded” During His Return At The 2011 Royal Rumble

In a momentous comeback at the 2011 Royal Rumble, Kevin Nash made his first appearance under his famed moniker, Diesel, since 1996.

During a candid discussion on “Kliq This,” Kevin Nash shared his experience of stepping back into the ring with the relentless duo, who eagerly welcomed the WWE Hall of Famer.

Those two guys pounded me like I owed them money.

And the whole f**king place is chanting ‘Diesel, Diesel.’ And I mean, they’re just relentlessly just f**king chewing me alive.

Nash reflected.

And I’m thinking, like you know what, man? I’m too old to f**king, like, fight from underneath. I’m just, like I’ll just take the beating. I’m getting eliminated here in a minute.
