Kevin Scott Nash (July 9, 1959), better known by his ring name Kevin Nash, a American professional wrestler and actor, and retired basketball player who performed in WCW and WWF/E. Nash has wrestled under several ring names, but is best known by his real name in World Championship Wrestling and in the World Wrestling Federation, where he has also been billed as Diesel.

Nash has wrestled under several ring names, but is best known for his work under his real name in World Championship Wrestling. Nash also found success in the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE), where he was originally billed as Diesel. In 1994, Nash (as Diesel) won all three titles comprising the WWF Triple Crown and at that year's Slammy Awards won the MVP (now Superstar of the Year) and (with Shawn Michaels) Best Tag Team (now Tag Team of the Year) awards. Between WWE, WCW, Nash has won a total of 21 championships, including being a six-time world champion (five-time WCW World Heavyweight Champion and one-time WWF Champion) and a 12-time world tag team champion between the three promotions. Although he held the WWF Championship only once, Nash's 358-day reign is the longest of the 1990s. During his time in WCW, Nash became the first wrestler to defeat Goldberg and in the process ended his undefeated streak of 173–0 at Starrcade in 1998.

Nash was a member of The Kliq, a group that included Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Scott Hall, and Sean Waltman. He is one of the three founding members of the New World Order, along with Hulk Hogan and Scott Hall. Nash was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2015.
