Nash supposedly has some movie role. So yeah, I think he's gone

I want him to be gone but... in the back of my mind there's a doubt, and I feel that we haven't see the last of 'im. Unfortunately.

Of course Nash isn't fired. They haven't even gotten a single match out of him yet (except the short Royal Rumble appearance). But even more obvious, John Larinidus got in the limo with Nash. So obviously the storyline isn't over yet.

that's what I'm afraid of... I really don't want to see Nash fired. I'd love to see him as a manager akla Michael Hayes. Hell, I'd love to see any wrestler from before the PG-era come back in as a manager.. Why the HELL won't WWE bring back the manager?? They're doing a good job making the tag-team belt more significant, and I'm happy as hell for that. But bring back the managers, for fucks sake! Bobby Heenan, Jimmy Hart, Paul Bearer - they all complimented notorious superstars and built them up to be the legends that they are today! That's what Pro Wrestling needs.. Hell, I remember when Hayes managed the Hardyz when nobody knew who they were.. They were awesome back then!

Bobby Heenan + Jimmy Hart + Paul Bearer + Michael Hayes = Vicki Guerrero (excuse me!)

They also recently trademarked "future endeavored" - i'm guessing its going to become storyline stuff in the future. Nash is going nowhere but Buffalo, NY in a couple weeks.

Managers are instant heat machines and I'm befuddled as to why they haven't made Cole a full time manager by now. He would get any heel over.

Nash "tweeted" about his released:
Kevin Nash posted the following on his Twitter page: "To set the record straight, I passed physical w/ flying colors. Cardiologist was amazed at my lipid profile. Couldn't reach financial terms. I will not be addressing this matter again. I am moving forward with my life. Cena, it was great having the chance to get to know you."
sounds like a work to me. even on twitter it seems like his lost for words :lol:
