“On behalf of Kevin and Tamara Nash, I have to unfortunately report that their son Tristen Nash has tragically passed at the age of 26.

Tristen recently started working on Kevin’s new podcast and the two enjoyed their time together.

The Nash family asks if you could please respect their privacy during this time.”

Speaking on his Kliq This podcast – courtesy of AdFreeShows.com – Kevin Nash spoke bravely and openly about the cause of his son’s untimely death and also revealed that those from the wrestling world that reached out to him during this difficult time included former WWE Chairman Vince McMahon:

“Vince (Russo) and I talked on a direct Twitter message. He was very, very kind. That’s the whole thing. I apologize if I haven’t got back to you. When you open your phone and there are 234 messages, where do you start? A lot of them are people who I’ve lost their numbers. For instance, one said, Terry, Rhyno, he reached out and thank God he put at the bottom, ‘This is Terry, Rhyno.’”

“I got a message and it was a Connecticut number. I thought it was somebody in the office. I started to read it and it was Vince (McMahon). It said, ‘This is my new number. If you need me, I’m here.”
