Kevin Nash & Syxx Shoot on Ric Flair & Rowdy Roddy Piper during NWO Promo! 1997 (WCW)

Nitro - (Apr 21 1997) Diesel & XPac shoot hard on Flair & Piper during Promo. Syxx says Flair stole Buddy Rogers Gimmick & Finisher & Nash says they both held young guys like Scott Hall down.

This might be my favorite Syxx promo. Both Nash and Syxx nailed it. What I would give to go back in time.

I remember watching this live as an 11 year old and as a kid these were just words and these guys were just wrestlers. Watching this now at age 35 and knowing wrestling terminology, Nash was shooting and spitting straight facts. You could see the anger in his eyes. I love it!

both waltman and Nash was speaking facts

Nash on the mic as himself was incredible

This is one of the best shoot promos in the history of the business. It serves as an example of how much better the WCW product was to the WWF at the time.

[xymoriintus]

As I've gotten older this has definitely become one of the better shoot type promos

Nash was right, 93-95 wrestling was a disaster and the legends destroyed the biz...Hall, Nash, Hbk, Bret etc had to work double time to revive it...but it was Hall and Nash that not only brought it back, they took it to a level it never seen before...

[bluehefner]

The fact that they even had a fake sting was hilarious

Great Era in wrestling. Better than the crap now.

"You know, I don't say too much..." (Immediately shows why by freezing up and then cutting a pretty bad promo) Nobody ever really let him talk until he became X-Pac. Funny thing is he's really entertaining in interviews.

Speaking of entertaining, that Nash promo is one of my favorite promos, when someone asks why I'm a Nash mark this is the first thing I point to (next is his first match with Bret Hart). Usually the response I get is "Nash is the shits... but that was a pretty fuckin' good promo."

You can tell that Nash had been wanting to cut this promo for a really long time. Having to work for WCW as Vinnie Vegas while Bill Watts pushed his untalented son Erik and then rebuilding the business after the bottom fell out in 1993 led to years of rage being bottled up against guys like Piper and Flair.

Art imitating life imitating art.
nWo 4 life 🤘

Nash cut a hell of a face promo here in front of his hometown crowd, Waltman wasn't too far behind him.

[AD-urfk]

It always felt like wcw fans never listened to promos.

[battlestarmarc]

The nwo should have stayed small and elite.
Kevin nash was a beast.
Wcw misused nwo sting.
Great promo.
Lol ugly broads.
Flair did rip off buddy rogers.

Now that I watch this promo as a 41 year old, this may be one of the most underrated promos I've seen.

"You DON'T Give Respect, You DON'T Get Respect. You BETTER BEAT RESPECT OUTTA ME, BOYS!" -Kevin Nash.

That's Deep. But, Be Careful Of What You Ask For, Big Sexy.

You Just Might Get It.

[brianconnelly]

THIS! This right here, it was then and still is now, the best promo Kevin Naah ever cut... It was CM Punk "PIPE BOMB" good...

[Wormanatti]

Damn wrestling at this time felt so real & genuine. The shoots were actually believable. Best damn period in wrestling ever period! I miss the WCW.

This promo only got good when the mic was in Nash`s hand. Waltman, although a decent worker, only got where he is because of being the Kliq`s mascot
