WWE Hall Of Famer Kevin Nash Explains What It Takes To Be A Top Worker
WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash shared his perspective on the key attributes that distinguish top-tier professional wrestlers.
Speaking on his podcast, Kliq This, Kevin Nash outlined three crucial qualities for success in the wrestling industry: believability, authenticity, and selflessness.
You have to put equal parts of ingredients into something to make them a great worker,” Nash explained. “I think the first thing is believability. Are they believable? Rey Mysterio was absolutely believable, so it has nothing to do with physical size.
Nash emphasised that believability extends beyond mere appearance, highlighting the importance of actions and moves that resonate as authentic to the audience.
Does their s**t look real? When they turn the gear on, and they start throwing boots or fists, does that look or mimic a shoot? I think that’s huge.
The final trait Nash discussed was the danger of being overly self-focused, which he believes can hinder a wrestler’s ability to grow and excel.
To me, are they a mark? If they’re a mark, they’re never going to be a great worker,” Nash remarked. “If they won’t put people over, if they’re not willing to teach, if they’re just a mark for themselves.
