In an interview with Kevin Sullivan as part of the comments that didn’t make the cut of his 2010 WWE Championship book release, former WWE, WCW & TNA Wrestling star Kevin Nash discussed his time as the WWE Champion, his relationship with WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart and more.

Highlights of the interview are below:

On winning the WWE Title at a house show event at Madison Square Garden: “At that time, that was the first year that we went to the fifth pay-per-view, which was King of the Ring. We just had four pay-per-views back then, of course, in those days, you would have loved to win the title at WrestleMania, but WrestleMania was several months away, plus at that time, we were starting to get a little bit of an upswing in the house show business and it was good for the fans to know that titles did change hands at house shows. To me, it was a moment in my career like no other, it didn’t matter where it was, but that fact that it was in the Garden was special enough for me”.

On his relationship with Bret Hart: “It’s funny that people say they don’t have a good relationship with Bret, but I just think they misunderstood Bret. I always thought I had a really good relationship with Bret, a lot of the times he and I would be on a European trip, I’d be in a jazz club in Germany, I’d look over and see Bret by himself, I’d be by myself, so we’d just sit and have some beers together. Bret was very much a lone wolf, but Bret had a very dry, budding, great sense of humor, very sarcastic. We always had a respect for each other and he was a pro, there was never a time when he didn’t lace them up. You know if you were in there with Bret, you were going to have a great match”.
