10 More Movie Mistakes Directors Refused To Fix Because The Acting Was Too Good
5. Kevin Nash Gets Stabbed - The Punisher
Back to wrestling now, and this time we're actually talking about the WWE-style stuff.
Yes!
Kevin Nash, also known as Diesel during his in-ring days, has had a nice little film career in between stints in the squared circle. He's been in Magic Mike, Rock of Ages, and John Wick. He even played Super Shredder in a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie!
Living the dream.
Nash also rocked up in The Punisher, a pre-MCU Marvel movie based on the character of the same name. The titular hero, played by Thomas Jane, finds himself fighting off a giant man in Where's Wally? cosplay named The Russian. That's our Kev.
Unfortunately, one of the stunt coordinators forgot to swap out the knives used in the scene, so Jane was armed with a real blade during his fake fight with Nash. This resulted in the actor actually stabbing the former wrestler in the collarbone, much to both men's horror.
But what's a little stabbing when you're used to getting beaten up for a living, eh? Nash clearly thought the same, as he just got right on with the rest of the sequence.
Kevin Nash is one scary dude.
