>On hisKliq Thispodcast, Kevin Nash voiced his frustration over his recent WWE royalty checks, claiming they have been drastically reduced and lack the detailed breakdowns he used to receive. The WWE Hall of Famer stated that the changes began after the TKO takeover and that he is considering legal action.
>Nash revealed that he and his Kliq stablemate, Sean Waltman (X-Pac), had a recent conversation about their payments. “I was talking to Mr. Waltman this week. We had our weekly update. We both got our royalty checks,” Nash said. “I said, ‘Holy fuck.’ I said, ‘the last one was good, this one was rotten.’ I mean, it was half.”
>He then pointed out a significant change in how the royalty statements are presented, which has made them less transparent. “When I was making huge money in my royalties, it was broken down. It would say ‘nWo T-shirts,’ ‘nWo women’s T-shirt.’ Now it says ‘nWo intellectual property,’ and there’s just a number. There’s no subcategories,” he explained.
>This lack of detail, combined with the reduced payment, has led Nash to consider his next steps. “It’s just, it’s going to be a forensic accounting and I’ll fucking sue them. I mean, that’s just the way it goes,” he stated. He believes the change in accounting is a deliberate move by the new parent company. “It got weird when they sold… If you take all those guys and you cut that in half and put that back on the books, that’s several million dollars.”
Good thing these guys were always nice about Tony and AEW huh?
