What Makes a Wrestler a Worker?

Kliq This: The Kevin Nash Podcast

Join Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver for another laid-back, no-filter conversation that dives deep into wrestling, life, and everything in between. Kevin opens up about the holiday season, the lure of huge lottery jackpots, and the reality of whether that kind of money would truly change his life. Sean keeps things lively with his anecdotes and takes on crowd behavior—because if you can’t laugh at a spontaneous sing-along or random flash mob, what can you do?

From there, the duo veers off into the world of ring psychology and what actually makes a “worker” in the wrestling business. It’s not always about high spots and fancy flips, but rather believability, storytelling, and the subtle art of controlling a crowd. Kevin shares memorable stories of wrestlers who understood this craft perfectly, and others who learned the hard way about when to ease off the gas.

The conversation also meanders through music, pop culture, and the strange quirks we develop over time—like how certain tunes can evoke powerful memories, or how a well-placed F-bomb can sometimes be the perfect exclamation point. You’ll hear Kevin recall moments that have shaped his perspective on performing, both in wrestling and in everyday life.

Throughout it all, the trademark candor and camaraderie shine through, leaving you feeling like you’re just hanging out with two friends who have seen and done it all. It’s an unfiltered look at the finer—and funnier—points of wrestling, with plenty of tangents that only Kevin and Sean can deliver. Pull up a seat, hit play, and let the guys give you their honest take on everything from power moves in the ring to the real motives behind billion-dollar ambitions.
