Kevin Nash had not wrestled a match in WWE since 2003, so to see him emerge at the Royal Rumble event, in his Diesel persona no less, prompted an absolutely enormous pop from the audience.
Nobody would buy that, and the audience would be insulted that WWE thought they were thick. Now, picture how people felt in 1996 when "Razor Ramon" and "Diesel" returned to the federation.
The WWE star smiled briefly but ... “You can cut the tension between The Rock and Vin Diesel with a knife,” one user wrote. “I thought some s*** was gonna pop off,” said another.
