On the September 12 episode of his Kliq This podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash spoke openly about his faith, revealing how his return to Christianity helped him through the painful losses of both his mother and his son, Tristen.
Nash explained that after drifting away at different points in his life, he always found peace when he turned control back over to God.
“Anytime I’m at the wheel, my life’s rough,” Nash admitted. “Anytime I hand the wheel over, my life seems perfect.”
The two-time Hall of Famer said he first reembraced his faith when his mother passed away, and once again after losing Tristen. He shared that a message written by his son before his passing strengthened his commitment to hold on to God, even in heartbreak.
“She [my mom] had a relationship with Christ again and went full circle,” Nash reflected, explaining how that same faith has carried him as well.
At 66, Nash says he refuses to let negativity take root in his life and instead focuses on living with perspective and purpose.
The former WWE Champion also pointed to how faith has transformed others in wrestling, recalling how Shawn Michaels’ decision to follow Christ changed his life and marriage. He also mentioned Sting and Lex Luger as men whose lives were deeply impacted by their own spiritual journeys.
For Nash, faith isn’t just something he speaks about — it’s what continues to guide him through grief, shape his outlook, and give him strength for the days ahead.
