10 Most Memorable WWE & WCW Superstar Arrests

10. Kevin Nash

No doubt the silliest entry on our list, number ten comes to us courtesy of Kevin Nash, who was arrested simply for using his signature move, the Jacknife Powerbomb, at a time when it was banned in WCW. The angle began following a botched finish to Nash's match with Paul Wight (WWE's Big Show, then known as The Giant) at 1998's Souled Out. The finish was supposed to see Nash powerbomb the 500-pound Wight to pick up the victory, but something went wrong during the maneuver and Nash accidentally dropped Wight on his head. The real-life accident was turned into an angle and the move was banned. Of course that didn't keep Nash from using it, and he was eventually arrested twice (once on Nitro, once on the following Thunder) for doing so. Eventually, the angle fizzled out and the move returned with Nash being able to use it with no further repercussions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWj8mKNAmeE

Yes, my last name is pronounced exactly as it's spelled. Just like "going to the store". ;) I am an aspiring writer currently working on my first novel, which is GOING to be awesome once it's published. (See what I did there?) I love reading, am a HUGE film buff (who welcomes all trivia challenges), and never miss a New York Giants football game. I'm an open book so if there is anything else you'd like to know about me, just ask.
