Some weeks the conversation takes a turn you could never see coming, and this one is no exception.

The vibe shifts constantly, keeping you leaning in just to see where the next sentence lands.

Kliq This: The Kevin Nash Podcast

Kevin Nash has told a lot of wild road stories over the years, but this week may have topped them all. What started as a trip to say goodbye to Hulk Hogan turned into one of the most chaotic, uncomfortable, and unintentionally hilarious travel days of his life. From Florida traffic hell to an unplanned wardrobe change to an ending no one saw coming, Big Sexy pulls back the curtain in a way only he can. Along the way, Kevin and Sean dig into the strange intersections between wrestling and unexpected celebrity circles, from high-end Italian restaurants to Broadway theaters. It’s a look at the...

Kliq This: The Kevin Nash Podcast

Step behind the curtain and slip into the green-room chaos that only the 11SOFT club normally hears. This “Best of the Pre-Show” mixtape stitches together those hot-mike minutes when Kevin Nash, Sean Oliver and the full Kliq brain-trust empty the chamber before the red light blinks. It is unfiltered locker-room humor, half-baked concepts and very real belly laughs… all finally set loose. Ever wondered how a Gaylord Perry Man of the Year trophy, Bea Arthur, and a Florida cop-battling “multitasker” could all end up in the same awards show pitch? The gang’s year-end brainstorm session...

Kliq This: The Kevin Nash Podcast

This week’s episode of Kliq This was meant to be something completely different. But when news breaks that big, there’s no way to ignore it. Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver react in real time to the reported death of Hulk Hogan, a man whose shadow looms large not only over professional wrestling, but over Kevin’s own career. What starts as a tribute quickly turns into something much deeper, much more personal. Kevin doesn’t just reflect on Hogan’s legacy, he walks us through the first time they met, the political chaos surrounding Hogan’s refusal to put Bret Hart over, and the tension...

Kliq This: The Kevin Nash Podcast

Bron Breaker snatches the spotlight and fires off his first real words on RAW, but why are Seth Rollins and Paul Heyman side-eyeing him from the shadows? Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver pull zero punches as they chase that thread into locker-room politics, billion-dollar tax “relief,” and whether an Elon-backed third party would nuke the 2024 race. You’ll also get: • A Florida Man vs Jersey Guy showdown that turns into pure chaos • Nash’s unfiltered take on fireworks, firearms, and those immortal “cracker” tweets • The gold-berg question: does nostalgia still sell when Trish and...

This week’s episode walks into the ring wearing the click-bait crown. “Ambrose Rejoins The Shield” sounds huge, right? Stick around and find out whether Dean actually walks through that curtain or if Kevin just keeps trolling the entire internet wrestling community. Kevin and Sean fire off on Jon Moxley’s year-long title situation, dream up five-year reigns, and ponder why AEW championships apparently come with dentist-office magazines instead of mandatory defenses. It gets spicy fast and no one is safe from the booking board. Elsewhere, Cody Rhodes signs autographs beneath a towering...

Success? show art Success?

Kliq This: The Kevin Nash Podcast

Think you know where the Goldberg vs Gunther hype train is heaxded? Kevin Nash has other ideas—and they involve three-minute shock finishes, jealous ex-pros, and why one well-timed spear can flip an entire roster on its head. Sean Oliver keeps the gas pedal down, dragging Kev into tales you’ve never heard: chainsaws that bite harder than any wrestling bump, the backstage shovel incident that sent half the WCW locker room running, and the real reason Diesel never needed a gold belt to print money. Just when you’re settled in, the conversation swerves into live-wire territory. From...

This week on Kliq This, Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver crack open the story of Paul Levesque — not just the wrestler, but the executive, the visionary, the man steering WWE through its post-Vince era. This isn’t your typical Triple H retrospective. It’s a candid, insider look at how Paul went from riding in the car with the Kliq to running the most powerful wrestling company in the world. And trust us — the way Kevin tells it, you’ll never look at an entrance, a storyline, or a WrestleMania moment the same way again. Kevin opens up like only a peer and friend of 30 years can, walking listeners through Paul’s evolution: from the young guy learning the business on the road to the architect of WWE’s current creative flow. There’s real admiration here, but also nuance — like how Paul delegates, who actually shapes what we see on TV, and what happens when the perfect plan falls flat between the writers’ room and the ring. It’s a conversation about power, performance, and the responsibility that comes with building something that millions of people care about. This episode also touches on landmark moments in Triple H’s journey: that spine-tingling 2002 MSG return, the birth of NXT as a credible counterculture brand, and the pressure of stepping into control during the company's most scandal-ridden moment. Kevin and Sean don't flinch — they talk about the McMahon family dynamic, Stephanie’s quiet exit, and how Paul managed to reinvent WWE’s tone without blowing it up entirely. Then, in true Kliq This fashion, things take a left turn — Kevin steps away mid-show for what Sean jokingly imagines is an emergency call with Triple H himself. That’s when longtime contributor Steve Kaufmann slides into the co-host chair for the back half of the episode. The vibe gets looser, the riffs get sharper, and a surprise round of “Florida Man vs. Jersey Guy” brings the perfect mix of absurdity and sharp wit that fans love about this show. Whether you're in it for the backstage scoops, the business philosophy, or the barstool banter, this episode is one of the most well-rounded yet. It's thoughtful, funny, and full of the kind of unfiltered insight that only comes when legends reflect on other legends — with a little sarcasm, a lot of honesty, and just enough rum in the piña coladas.
