WWE legend fears lack of international WrestleMania attendance due to ICE

The political scenario in the USA is arguably at an all-time high. With the Donald Trump administration’s ICE potentially causing FIFA World Cup attendance issues, WWE legend Kevin Nash believes it also caused a lower international crowd at this year’s WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas.

Kevin Nash took part in WrestleCon during the WrestleMania 42 weekend, appearing throughout the weekend to sign autographs and take photos. He was also present at the 2026 Hall of Fame ceremony, where he and Sean Waltman inducted Dennis Rodman.

On the latest episode of his Kliq This podcast, Nash spoke about the lack of international fans attending the event and connected the situation with ICE. “My first day on Thursday, I don’t hear a British, Scottish, Irish, Australian, anybody having a fucking accent, except for Americans, because nobody in the fucking world, including wrestling fans, is going to come to our country and go through our customs and ICE and bullshit,” Nash said.

“We’re not exactly the darlings on Earth right now. You don’t have to worry about tariffs when the country is in the Fourth Reich. Most times that I sign during the four hours, it wasn’t because I didn’t have people in front of me, I just didn’t have a line of people in front of me,” he continued.

“I could take my time because I could look and say, ‘I have six people, I can spend two minutes with each person,’ instead of when you look and there is no end of the line, and you have two hours left. ‘No personalizations, we gotta fucking go.’ It wasn’t as bad as the year after COVID, but it had a little bit of that deal.”

While critically analyzing the ICE situation in the USA right now, Nash had previously also opened up about the lack of catering during the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony in his same podcast episode.
