In 1994, Nash (as Diesel) won all three titles comprising the WWF Triple Crown, and at that year's Slammy Awards won the MVP (now Superstar of the Year) and (with Shawn Michaels) the Best Tag Team (now Tag Team of the Year) awards. Between WWE, WCW, and TNA, Nash has won a total of 21 championships, including being a six-time world champion (a five-time WCW World Heavyweight Champion and one-time WWF Champion), and a 12-time world tag team champion between the three promotions. Although he held the WWF Championship only once, Nash is the longest-reigning titleholder of the 1990s, with a 358-day run. During his time in WCW, Nash also became the first wrestler to defeat Goldberg and in the process ended his undefeated streak of 173–0 at Starrcade in 1998. Nash was a member of The Kliq, a group that included Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Scott Hall, and Sean Waltman. He is one of the three founding members of the New World Order (nWo), along with Hulk Hogan and Scott Hall; Nash was described in ''Fighting Spirit Magazine'' as "arguably the nWo's most important member". He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2015. == Early life == Nash was born on July 9, 1959, to a devout Christian family, in southwest Detroit, Michigan.〔http://books.google.com/books?id=i6PEJe9BEL8C&pg=PA12&lpg=PA12&dq=growing+strong+kevin+nash&source=bl&ots=n-j_JJ5B5I&sig=bZCz2avoNGODiLWR4TYQ1oYpVms&hl=en&sa=X&ei=pf6GVLn7OoqRyQSTmoGgAQ&ved=0CB4Q6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=growing%20strong%20kevin%20nash&f=false〕 Nash's father, Robert, died of a heart attack on April 4, 1968, aged 36, when Nash was eight years old.〔November 19, 2009 episode of TNA Impact!, conversation between Nash and Mick Foley〕〔(Kevin's Forum ).
