Kevin Nash deletes his public apology to Je’Von Evans after receiving backlash

During his podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash commented on the work of Je’Von Evans in WWE while discussing Je’Von’s OG cutter. Nash stated that “he’s a little bit too Mr. Bojangles for me, I wish he was a little bit more urban.”

Nash issued a public apology via Twitter/X but ended up deleting his post after he received backlash. User @KevOnStage wrote “You were so close” while redacting Nash’s entire apology except for the sentence “I apologize for the use of the term Mr. Bogangles, it was in poor taste and obviously offensive.”

Nash responded with the following message…

“No worries. I won’t make the mistake of saying anything about The Young OG. I’ve read the comments, and I agree. If he fails, it’s on him. Haven’t seen a comment from anyone who’s made millions in the business. I didn’t coin him an ‘Original Gangster’ Won’t change my life either way.”

No worries. I won't make the mistake of saying anything about The Young OG. I've read the comments, and I agree. If he fails, it's on him. Haven't seen a comment from anyone who's made millions in the business. I didn't coin him an " Original Gangster" Won't change my life either…
