“On behalf of Kevin and Tamara Nash, I have to unfortunately report that their son Tristen Nash has tragically passed away at the age of 26,” Sapp wrote.
“Tristen recently started working on Kevin’s new podcast and the two enjoyed their time together.
“The Nash family asks if you could please respect their privacy during this time.”
Kevin Nash was famous for being a founding member of the New World Order along with Hulk Hogan and Scott Hall. Thursday would have marked Hall’s 64th birthday, but he died in March.

My thoughts are with Kevin Nash & his family following the passing of his son. It’s absolutely tragic.
