Kevin Nash does not sign for autograph hunters when he is accosted at airports.
Autograph hunting is a major problem in the professional wrestling communities. These people stake out airports and hotels where professional wrestlers are passing through on the road and ask for multiple pieces of merchandise signed that later ends up on Ebay. Several wrestlers, including Rhea Ripley and Saraya, have condemned these autograph hunters but many talent are afraid to say no to these people due to possible backlash.
Speaking with co-host Sean Oliver on Kliq This, Nash explained that he is not in the interest of signing for these autograph hunters in airports.
“I won’t do it for an adult. I know how much those things go for. It used to be you could sign your name on then with a paint pen, [but] they got shit that they can just wipe that right off it. To me, it’s like if you’re carrying a Funko, I ain’t signing it. So don’t carry a Funko,”
“Yeah, you’ll see a price listing in of it. The only reason I’m at the airport is because I’m going to a signing. So your chances of getting something for free, being the reason that I’m leaving my fucking house in the first place, is about as good a chance of fucking Punk being the main event on Raw Monday when he showed up in the parking lot,”

We will have to wait and see how wrestlers continue to deal with these autograph hunters but Kevin Nash will certainly not be entertaining them anytime soon.
