While speaking on his Kliq This podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash expressed his lack of familiarity with HOOK, referencing Tony Khan’s promotion of HOOK’s 28-1 record in AEW. Nash compared HOOK to Jinder Mahal, who hasn’t won a match in a year, questioning the Q rating and visibility of the two wrestlers. He also questioned how believable HOOK would be, comparing it to Goldberg’s undefeated streak in WCW.

>“If f**ing HOOK was sitting next to me right now, I wouldn’t know who the f**k HOOK was. Give him the fu**ing hook. So let’s just say it’s 28-1 career record. This sounds like fu**ing back when they were doing the Goldberg thing. It’s like, you know he didn’t really win 28 matches of his own accord, but my whole thing is Q rating. If you put a fu**ing picture of Jinder and then you put a picture of HOOK, I’m quite sure fu**ing Jinder is gonna fu**ing have a much higher Q rating. It’s like, ‘Tomorrow on TBS.’ Well enjoy that because you guys might not be on much longer.”

When shown a picture of HOOK, Nash admitted not recognizing him and questioned the wrestler’s weight class, making it clear he doesn’t think HOOK is credible at all.

>“Who is this? Jesus, I mean, is that like, flyweight? What does that guy weigh?”
