Every WCW Heavyweight Champion: Where Are They Now?

13. Kevin Nash

One of the founding members of the New World Order, Kevin Nash had a very polarising run in WCW, with many fans pointing to the backstage power he held as a sign of his success within the company. While he was certainly no slouch in drawing a crowd, he may never shake the taste he left in people's mouths with his booking.

In any case, the former Diesel bagged himself five WCW World Championships, however, much like the aforementioned Randy Savage, his multitude of reigns didn't really equate to a lot of time with the belt in hand. He accounted for only 96 days in total, if you take out his biggest run with the gold that lasted 63 days, and things begin to look a lot worse.

Nash has remained very busy in the years since his time in WCW, moving on from a short stint back in WWE in the early 2000s and onto a seven-year run with TNA. He eventually returned to Vince McMahon for a third time in an infamous angle involving Triple H and CM Punk in 2011. The less said about that the better.

On top of some token appearances for anniversary and Network shows, Nash has begun carving out a bit of a film career throughout his mid-to-late 50s, most notably twin performances in the Magic Mike series.

The big man has also been a fascinatingly loud voice in the shoot interview scene over the years, popping up in plenty of podcasts and radio shows along the way.
