10 Wrestlers Who Seriously Started To Believe Their Own Hype

9. Kevin Nash

When Kevin Nash was at the peak of his powers, the guy could seemingly do no wrong. As the figurehead of the infinitely cool nWo Wolfpac, 'Big Sexy' had everything he had ever desired, and actual in-ring wrestling was secondary to his endlessly cool personality and natural charisma. Yes, Nash had become a bigger star since leaving the WWF in 1996, something which seemed impossible to the man just a few years before. Stunningly, Nash had pretty much lied to get out of his WCW contract previously, so he could go to the WWF and become 'Diesel', the bodyguard of Shawn Michaels. Telling WCW officials that he planned to leave wrestling, the big man wasn't exactly telling the truth! Becoming the longest running WWF Champion of the time, Nash would become even more of a big deal back in WCW. Generally well-liked by most, Nash is someone considered 'cool' by many of his peers, but he has shown a fair amount of arrogance over the years. Whilst working for TNA, Nash badmouthed Matt Morgan whilst on commentary, remarking that he had nothing to offer other than being a 'big guy'. This, coupled with calling the likes of Chris Benoit and Dean Malenko 'vanilla midgets', is exactly what people are talking about when they say Kevin Nash has taken his success for granted.
