Mercedes Moné made a name for herself in WWE and was a part of several classic encounters. She had an instant classic with her real-life friend Bayley at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn 2015. The match in question is regarded by many as Mercedes' best outing in the squared circle.

On the latest edition of Kliq This, WWE legend Kevin Nash took a shot at the AEW star and hinted that she's become lazy. Check out his comments below:

"Sasha, whatever her name is now, CEO ... I watched her match and man she's phoning her s**t in big time. That's not the same girl I watched tear down the house in Brooklyn with Bayley," Nash said on Kliq This. (H/T WrestlingInc)

Kevin Nash rips AEW segment

Nash has been critical of AEW content on several occasions in the past. Recently, he criticized a segment in which Thunder Rosa hesitated in hitting Megan Bayne and Penelope Ford with a steel chair, leading to an awkward visual. Here's what Nash said about the segment:

"Number one, they have to have production meetings. They have to have agents that are in charge of each segment. Everybody has to be on the same page. They're not; it's clear. It's a f***ing s*** show. It's unwatchable, but if you decide to f***ing call an audible and go in for a spear and [Rosa] decides to swing the chair, now you're opening yourself up where you can't protect yourself,'' he said.
