Speaking on his Kliq This podcast, Kevin Nash was asked about his time in TNA.

“I had a ball at TNA. When I had to wrestle, I worked hard. [Asked what the vibe was backstage] I was stoned all the time [laughs], I can’t really speak to…it was like 68 minutes from my house to the backlot," Nash said.

Later in the podcast, Nash reiterated that he enjoyed his time in TNA, and he highlighted the travel as one specific positive. He noted that there was freedom to do other projects, and the company worked with him to let him do a movie.

“I was happy at TNA. When you don’t have to get on an airplane to work for a company, I did house shows for them, we did some pay-per-views here and there, but it was so nice because you could do all your other bullshit, too. You could do your side hustle, and it was like a good, solid, steady paycheck that covered your fundamentals, and anything you made after that was gravy. Plus, you could do a movie, it wasn’t like, ‘Oh, fuck, are they gonna give me the time off?’ It’s like, ‘Yeah, no problem.’ It was cool. It was come and go as you please, do your fucking gig. You’re not gonna make a million dollars, but….," Nash said.
