Kevin Nash discusses differences between Sting and Owen Hart's harnesses

Summary

Kevin Nash shared insights on his podcast “Kliq This” regarding the differences in harnesses used by Sting and the late Owen Hart. Following a fan query, Nash noted that Sting's harness, used in WCW, differed significantly from the apparatus involved in Hart's tragic accident in 1999. Nash could not confirm whether WCW ceased using the harness out of respect for Hart, but emphasized that WCW's setup featured a fixed harness compared to Hart's quick-release mechanism. The accident, which happened during the Over the Edge pay-per-view, resulted in Hart’s fatal fall, sparking ongoing discussions about safety in wrestling.
