Kevin Nash On Diamond Dallas Page’s Disappointing WWE Run, How WWE Booked WCW Talent

On the latest episode of Kliq This, Kevin Nash discussed the disappointing WWE run of his former WCW colleague, Diamond Dallas Page, during the 2001 Invasion storyline. You can check out some highlights below:

Kevin Nash on how Diamond Dallas Page did in WWE: “Oh, he got killed. They killed him. That was everybody that was anybody. He was just — he went over, his dream was always to work for the WWE. And so when Vince offered the buyout at 50 cents on the dollar, he took it. So he took the buyout, then took a downside. So basically it’s like, now you’re going back to work to make what you would have got if you would have sat at home on the couch.”

On how Vince handled it: “So what’s Vince do? He ‘sthe biggest star that comes over in the first run besides Booker. Him and Booker were the two biggest stars that came. And I think that the lack of f**king them having any black superstars at that time at the WWE, they didn’t want to f**k with Book. And they f**ked with Dallas bad, yeah. I mean, he did a job for Taker’s wife.”

On WWE’s booking of WCW talent: “I’ll never forget watching Goldberg get beaten to death by Christian in a cage match with a chair. Christian just beat him to f**king death. I was watching that going, ‘Motherf**ker!’ Then Sting came back and f**king — Paul beat him.

“It’s like there’s not one guy that was over, you know? And I hate to f**king be redundant, but I’m sorry, man. The f**king Confederate generals were not going to go over in any war scenario when they came back. Because we took those guys to the brink, you know? Like we almost f**king closed their doors. You expecting a favor from Vince?”
