Even though Nash had a run as Diesel in the then-WWF during the mid-90's, and even held the promotion's top title for around a year, the big man became closely tied to WCW. Jumping over to Ted Turner's group in 1996, Nash infamously helped form the nWo - alongside Scott Hall and Hulk Hogan - shortly afterwards, and would play a part in WCW right up until Vince McMahon bought the promotion in 2001. Moving back to WWE in 2002, it wasn't until the following year that the 7ft giant had the chance to lock horns with his real-life buddy, Triple H in the company. At Badd Blood 2003, the tandem would fight one another inside Hell In A Cell, with Mick Foley as the special guest referee. It must have been a joy for the pals to get the chance to work with one another, and Nash was still viewed as a big star in 2003, certainly by the creative team. Even as recently as 2011, Triple H and Kevin Nash would work alongside one another, piecing together a Ladder Match at the TLC Pay-Per-View, infamously prompting the latter to remark on the genius of booking a 7ft guy with bad knees and a history of not being the most agile to work a Ladder Match.
