Burt Reynolds, in Marvel Comics'/Artisan Entertainment's

Pressly.
Formerly in TNA Total Non-Stop Action Wrestling
on Spike TV, Kevin is now back with WWE as
Deisel.
At 6' 10" with pure muscle mass and the looks of an
outlaw biker, Kevin Nash has the wit of Howard Stern and
intelligent opinions on everything from sports to
feminism to politics, and backs up all of his claims
with biting humor and surprising wisdom! Is it unusual
for a man who has achieved stardom in the world of
professional wrestling to read the New Yorker on a daily
basis and take the lead in philosophical conversation at
dinner? It's no wonder that Kevin Nash, better known as BIG
SEXY to his fans, is one of the most well known
personalities in the wrestling business and has
established himself not only in the realm of sports, but
in the entertainment world as well.
Kevin’s work in TV an FILM includes Brothers
(FOX), The New Love Boat (UPN), Sabrina
the Teenage Witch (ABC), and Nikki
(WB). He has also hosted VH1's The List
and been a guest on such talk shows as The Test,
The Tonight Show, Politically Incorrect and Jimmy
Kimmel.
Kevin’s
additional work on the big screen includes Almighty
Thor (dir. Chris Ray), The Newest Pledge
(dir. Jason Michael Brescia), and Monster Brawl
(dir. Jesse T. Cook).
Kevin grew up in Detroit, Michigan with dreams of
playing on a professional basketball team. He played
basketball for the University of Tennessee and headed
overseas for several years where his dream of becoming a
pro-basketball player came true, playing for various
European teams.
Only after serving in the United States Army for two
years did Kevin's life turn to wrestling. He began
working for WTBS, and in 1993 he signed with Vince
McMahon and the World Wrestling Federation (WWF). The
rest... is history.
Currently, Kevin has just finished shooting Rock
of Ages (dir. Adam Shankman) with Tom Cruise,
Paul Giamatti, and Russell Brand. He starts shooting
Steven Soderberg’s Magic Mike later this
month.
In his free time, Kevin spends time with his wife and
son.
