Kevin Nash’s family experienced a terrible loss when Tristen, his 26-year-old son, lost his life. Through it all, the Nash Family saw a tremendous amount of support.

During his “To Be The Man” podcast, the Nature Boy revealed that he has spoken with Nash about this situation. He said to Nash, “You’re never going to get over it, you just have to figure out how to deal with it.” The 4 Horsemen member went on to explain the situation.

“Dealing with it the way I did, by just completely shutting down and drinking for five straight years didn’t work out, it didn’t do anything. My advice to him was just hang on to your wife as tight as you can and don’t throw blame at each other, there’s no way to deal with it.”

Ric Flair hoped that what he had to say to Nash was “something to encourage him,” because the Nature Boy has been through a similar situation with losing his son, Reid.

“It happened on the eve of Scott Hall’s birthday. It’s a double whammy for him because I don’t think he’s recovered from the loss of Scott yet. So it just shows what a great friend he was to Scott, you know, Scott could be problematic, and Kevin never left his side, never heard Kevin say anything negative about Scott … After all those years it’s hard to find friends like that, so I’ve got nothing but respect for him.”

Our thoughts go out to Kevin Nash’s family as they deal with this terrible situation. We can only hope that they get closure through this ordeal. Obviously, they have a ton of people pulling for them.

I love pro wrestling and hate BS. These two things drive me. Years of experience in writing, journalism, and digging exclusive insider info for Ringside News. Worked in finance before realizing pro wrestling journalism made much less sense. Pro beachballs at pro wrestling shows, pro dives if someone catches, anti bullies, olives, and pineapples on pizza.
