Stone Cold Kevin Nash?

I was reading an old wrestling observer from 1995, and it dawned on me that anti corporate, thorn in Vince Mcmahon's side, management adversary role was originally planned for Kevin Nash as evidenced here:

Vince was going to reboot the Diesel character by turning him into an anti authority tweener, but before the push could get off the ground, Nash jumped to WCW. They revisited it later with you know who. Amazing to think how different the wrestling landscape would look today had Nash, and Scott Hall to a lesser extent, turned down WCW's contract offer.

I don't think he would have been as good as StoneGOAT in that role but the thought of Nash trollin cokeboy on a weekly basis is

The only difference would have been that rather than Big Sexy changing the wrestling business in 1996/1997 with NWO, he would have done it in 1998/1999 with this angle.

Yeah

It might have been Inoki inspired but who knows.

Vince would've been out of business right now.
