WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash recently took to an episode of his Kliq This podcast, where he discussed a number of topics such as how he ran into fellow WWE Hall of Famer The Honky Tonk Man a little while back after not seeing him for quite some time and how he could see the sincerity in Honky's face when he looked at Nash and told him that he is real sorry about what he had to go through.
Kevin Nash also talked about how Honky Tonk Man got really sick with COVID and how he was telling him that it was a fu**ing hit and miss sick and that they probably had it at the same time.
Kevin Nash said:
“I haven’t seen Honky Tonk, God, I can’t even remember the last time I saw him. I think maybe at a Con 5 or 6 years ago. There were times when we rattled each other, but we were just trying to keep something going between anybody that was still working. I ran into him and he was sitting. I walked right into the Pensacola, they only got like 10 gates, and right in the middle of it is this horseshoe hub little bar. The Lakers game was finishing up. I’m like, ‘Oh f**k man. This is sweet. I can sit right here.' I’m looking at the television screen. I looked over and they got this, she’s pouring, 305, I think is the area code down there, and it’s some blonde lager in a big 20 ounce glass. I’m like, ‘Oh f**k. That’s so me.’ I’m not paying any attention. I just sit down and I casually look to my left and there’s fu**ing Honky Tonk and I hadn’t seen him the whole weekend. He was so kind. He looked at me and goes, ‘Man, I’m just real sorry about what you had to go through’, and that was it. He didn’t go any further. I could see in his face the sincerity. People always like to say different things about Honky Tonk. I just remember when I did that Pediatric AIDS thing, I didn’t have to ask him. He was just there with his gear and willing to work.”
“He got real sick with COVID. He was telling me like it was fu**ing hit and miss sick. I think we were at the same time. I was in Qatar and a couple places and he was over different places too where I think the strain was already out because there was a higher population of Chinese.”
