Kevin Nash says that when he sat down with Vince McMahon to discuss potential storylines in WWE if he were to make a return, McMahon wanted him to finish his career as Diesel with dyed hair.
"Vince wanted me to do the Diesel thing," Nash told Tim Baines of the Winnipeg Sun. "And I was OK with that, basically to start and end my career as Diesel. When we sat down and talked, Vince got to the point where he wanted me to color my hair dark. I went to my hair lady and she said with my hair, that's all I'd be doing is dying my hair."
Nash repeats the story about his wife convincing him to stick in TNA, but also adds more details on the original clique, Shawn Michaels and Triple H, growing up and growing apart.
"I sat down with my wife and she said: 'Shawn and Hunter are up there. But Hunter's married with kids. And Shawn's not going to be there much longer. You don't know any of those guys,'" Nash said. "It was a difficult decision because it is WWE, but I know I made the right decision."
Nash adds that he's lost 20 pounds to help relieve pressure on his aching knees. He says he doesn't take pain medicine either, as he saw what happened to previous wrestlers who became dependent on drugs.
"I don't take pain medicine. I think about painkillers," he said. "Some of the guys (who have died) were taking painkillers and muscle relaxers. Some of those painkillers were so strong, they might as well have been doing heroin."
