>>17752800You have to understand that Nash actually worked before wrestling.
Nash started when he was 30. So he had actual life experience doing shit. Wrestling even then was full of yokels, failed athletes, and literal retards, so it was easy for Management to control. Nash came in with enough experience to know his worth, and treated it as a job, because that's what it was.
It's not about being "smart" like you said, it's that he's someone who already lived some life and could see that most of what management said was bullshit.
>>17757499But that is SMART enough for wrestling, which is Ross' point. He can getaway with that shit their and knew how to play the game. Businessman Bischoff fucking signed him and then gave him double the money a couple of months later because he thought he believed Vince's fake Diesel shit. Even management was a bunch of fucking idiots.
Vince is like the rare case where it's someone who actually is smart running shit in the wrestling business.
