As reported yesterday in the article listed at the bottom of this piece, Kevin Nash would be in Pittsburgh on Saturday (today) for a non-WWE related event. It’s now confirmed that Nash has checked into the hotel that WWE wrestlers are using while in town for the PPV. This could be the case of Nash hanging around to see some friends or visit at the PPV, or it could also mean that we can expect another resurgence of Nash at the Royal Rumble. We’ll know one way or the other in less than 24 hours time!

Sheamus, Chris Jericho and Kevin Nash are all in the vicinity of Pittsburgh this weekend, where the Royal Rumble is being held. Obviously, any speculation here is purely just that. Sheamus is at the Pittsburgh World of Wheels show today from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, while Jericho will be at the same event tomorrow from 12 PM to 3 PM. Nash is hosting a party at a venue in Robinson, Pennsylvania (which is just outside of Pittsburgh) on Saturday night. All three men have had attention drawn to them in recent weeks; Sheamus has been pegged for a potential Rumble return while Jericho was advertised for an upcoming WWE house show in his hometown, which WWE then denied. Nash posted a picture of himself on Twitter with dyed hair and facial hair, which he then said was because he’s up for the lead role in a TV pilot. Whether any of them will appear at the Rumble or not is speculation right now.
There has also been talk of bringing in 2 Cold Scorpio as a surprise Royal Rumble entrant this Sunday. The idea would be that there’s an ECW tie-in since original ECW TV and pay-per-views will be on the Network. Another name rumored within WWE is Jimmy Wang Yang, who teased it on Twitter, is a good friend of Batista’s and attended two WWE events last week.
Here’s one of the pictures Nash took of his dye job. It should be noted that WWE always requests that Kevin dye his hair before returning in order to keep the “youth” look.
