Kevin Nash Explains Why He Thinks The Rock Returned To WWE

Kevin Nash has a theory about The Rock’s recent surprise return to WWE.

On the latest installment of his “Kliq This” podcast, the multiple-time WWE Hall of Fame legend spoke about how The Rock looked great in his return, and that he made a return to help keep his overall brand strong.

Featured below are some of the highlights from the episode where he touches on this topic with his thoughts.

On how he thinks The Rock looked great in his return: “He looked great. It look like he put on 15 pounds from the Colorado game [laughs]. They went through the list, and Theory is young, right? Like 26 [years old], something like that? The list of guys he’s worked with already, woo. I really thought that he held his own in there.”

On how The Rock returned to help keep his brand strong: “Well number one, to keep his brand strong. Who knows how long [the SAG-AFTRA strike] will go on. Dwayne is double pinched in this, because not only is Dwayne a member of the Screen Actors Guild as an actor, but he’s also a producer, so [he has] a pension health plan. I don’t think he’s doing it for the payday, but he’s definitely doing it from a PR standpoint. I don’t think it’s ever a bad thing to come back to where you started and show the world you’re the biggest star in [Hollywood].”
