Kevin Nash Criticizes AEWs House Show Model, Thinks Talent Take Too Many High Risks

One point of contention Nash raises about their current house show model is that it doesn’t allow for a lot of talent to improve. When looking at the advertisements for them, you’ll notice just about everyone they can possibly cram is on the poster. “The whole thing is each one of these people are gonna go to one show,” he continued. “And they’ll get a house show in, hopefully with the person that they’re gonna work TV against so they can get a run through. It is what it is.”

With their model as is, AEW House Shows aren’t too regular of a thing. But if they’re not going to help their talent improve in-ring through events like that, he’d like to see them set up a training facility with multiple rings in order to do so. Even if it means just rotating certain wrestlers in and out. Until then, he believes some will just continue to struggle due to a lack of ring work. But, there is one more thing he’d like to see the promotion cut back on.

In addition to their house show model, Nash doesn’t particularly care for AEW’s risk-taking style. And in the long run, he believes that it’ll come back to haunt a lot of the wrestlers. “And that also increases the chance of f***ing — because their style is so, I’ll just use the term reckless,” he added. He singled out Sammy Guevara specifically, wondering aloud “How many times can he do a 55 Gainer and hit a guy perfectly going through a table or a ladder before he f***ing misses?”
