“Actually Nash is generally very well liked. He's a super charming in person. Absolutely had people who didn't like him, but always had his defenders. When he was champ in WWF, people in management thought he was a no talent bully but Vince adored the guy. Some talent hated him but he was more well liked than not. He was mostly a cool guy & being Shawn's unofficial bodyguard probably saved Shawn's ass a few times. People were afraid of him, too. With his size & bragging that he had never lost a street fight, he pretty much could get his way a lot.” - Dave Meltzer [THE BOARD at F4wonline - 10th August 2012]
- Things We Learned From Scott Steiner: Live & Uncensored tour at The Garage in Islington, London. Scott Steiner has a reputation for being one of the toughest & most intimidating professional wrestlers the business has ever seen. But is there anybody out there that Steiner himself actually feared? Asked whether there was someone who he would think twice about before meeting in the parking lot for a brawl, Steiner said there wasn't one. Sure, there were tough guys in every locker room he was ever in, but nobody he would be scared to fight. The Big Bad Booty Daddy did name-drop Haku/Meng as someone who was known for his toughness & also said that Kevin Nash would be a tough fight, given his size & experience as a bouncer, but Steiner didn't say whether they'd be able to take him or not.

After discussing Seth Rollins embarrassingly describing getting BTFO by a 5'4 fat manlet as "terrifying" Ric Flair then described the toughness of Harley Race, Brusier Brody, and Dick Slater. He later added...
"Going back to tough guys, one of the last tough guys in the business that I can think of is Kevin Nash. You never saw anybody pick on Kevin Nash. The Steiners didn't do anything to him. Nobody did. Kevin Nash is a tough kid too." - Ric Flair
