In an interview with The Miami Herald, WWE Hall of Famer Sgt. Slaughter commented on the potential of The Rock and Brock Lesnar facing off once again, recruiting Kevin Nash to the WWE and more.
Highlights of the interview are below:
On a potential Brock Lesnar vs. The Rock match: “That would be an incredible match, especially now that both have matured in their businesses.”
On recruiting Kevin Nash to the WWE: “Whether Shawn Michaels called him or not, I did discover Diesel in a box of tapes one time. I showed it to Vince McMahon and he told me to give him a tryout. I’ve been around a long time, coming up the ranks I’ve got to see those who were the sons of professional wrestlers get in the ring when they were 5 years old, I would wrestle around with them, guys like The Rock and Randy Orton. Just to see some of the other Samoan kids now, that’s all they thought about was professional wrestling. They would get in the ring and we would work out with them. Now, to see them blossoming the proper way, to get into pro wrestling and sports entertainment business, just makes your heart feel good.”
