10 Times WWE Sabotaged WCW Wrestlers

Few WCW talents have been a victim of sabotage as often as Kevin Nash.

The most obvious example came when Nash returned to challenge Triple H for the World Championship in Hell In A Cell at Bad Blood 2003. According to Nash, a spot was planned that would see Foley take a vicious bump, flying off the ring apron and onto the cell before crashing to the floor below. This would leave Foley knocked out for some time while Nash delivered his signature Jackknife Powerbomb to the champion. Even though Nash was losing, in theory, he would be protected since no ref would be there to make the cover after hitting his finisher. Instead, Foley took the bump but was miraculously back in the ring seconds later, ready to make the count, Triple H kicked out on two, killing Nash's finish and arguably Nash himself.

In 2011, Nash would again be put in a match against Triple H that made the former WCW Champion look foolish. In the final singles match of his WWE career, the seven foot Nash (with a history of leg and knee injuries) was booked in a Ladder Match against an ageing, limited Triple H.

Nash has experienced it first hand and knows it to be true: whenever it comes to WCW, that WWE shovel is going to come out every time.
