10 Times Kevin Nash Was The Absolute Best

5. Kevin Nash Catches The Cup

A moment that gained a second life thanks to invention of gifs, Kevin Nash already looked like one of the three coolest guys in the room as the white hot New World Order were pelted with garbage following yet another Nitro gone awry.

He was about to double down.

Having beaten the f*ck out of Sting, Ric Flair and others at the very height of their early dominance, Nash takes one look away from the camera Hulk Hogan is spraying to see a full drink coming at high speed. 'Big Sexy' makes magic with it.

The manner in which he grins, catches it, throws it aside then sneers again towards whomever threw it is among the greatest individual improvised spots in wrestling history, yet not one Nash referenced ever again whenever he needed something unique to sell about himself. And it could only come from a man that eats (and books) thunder, sh*ts lightning and exudes cool.
