Kevin Nash Doesn’t Think Cody-Jericho AEW Segment Made Good First Impression; Offers Cody Advice
Kevin Nash knows about booking.
Former WCW and WWE Champion Kevin Nash checked out AEW Dynamite on Wednesday, and while the vast majority of fans seemed to enjoy the show, Nash didn’t come away impressed by the one segment he watched. Nash specifically zeroed in on the segment between Cody and Chris Jericho, which saw Cody take shots at WWE and the “invisible wall” before heading up to the VIP section occupied by Jericho and The Inner Circle.
@CodyRhodes if you’re going to say you’re not @WWE and the ropes don’t stop you. Make sure @IAmJericho isn’t in his box with a AEW Mike. Couldn’t spell work any clearer. It’s the details. I ran thur the DVR to see Chris’s segment. Not a great first impression on detailed thought

Fans came at Nash for his criticism, which led to Nash defending himself and his booking choices when he was in WCW.
No I wasn’t booking. If I was I would have had a strong 9 month run. Not the finger poke of doom 6 days later. Sorry that logic really fucks that entire fable to shit.

As do 90% of my haters. Just makes those that don’t know the timeline or truth fucking sheep. I beat the unbeatable @Goldberg and never get a chance to say how great I am. I solidify my involvement in the screw job.

Nash went on say he won’t be watching AEW anymore, but will continue to support his friend Chris Jericho. He also gave his thoughts on how he believes the segment should have played out.
Shit load of great TV. I’d rather watch NXT. I’ll continue to watch @IAmJericho segments

A wireless mic can be cut off by the truck. Cody’s the boss. He looks hard camera and says cut his mic or find a new job. I don’t want a podcast. I want to go to the gym and look at the ocean and do personal appearances to hang out with my fans

Chris sits ringside with ticket. Cody starts to cut his promo. Chris interrupts ,he’s within earshot. Cody attacks him. Chris gets a restraining order. Cody has to do a match according to Chris’s stipulations. He loses because of it. Continuing the chase
