As a stellar athlete, Nash played three seasons
of roundball at the University of Tennessee helping the Vols to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA
tournament. He later took his game to Germany, where he played professionally for four
years before a knee injury redirected his career to the squared-circle.
The "big man" Kevin Nash fits a tall

which helps define him as one of the most popular supertars in wrestling today.
