Wrestling superstar Kevin Nash was arrested early Christmas Eve morning after getting into a bloody fight with his teenaged son Tristen.

The 55-year-old legend, who is currently under contract with the WWE, was taken into custody in Volusia County, Florida after cops received a call about a domestic incident just after midnight. When they got there, Kevin had blood on his face and was taken in.

Two hours later, cops received another 911 call from a person claiming 18-year-old Tristen attacked his mother. He was also arrested for battery.

The report says he told cops his son came home wasted and belligerent toward him and Kevin’s wife, then spit in his face and elbow-checked him. Kevin told cops he pinned Tristen to the ground and that’s when Tristen scratched his face.

But Tristen said Kevin was berating him over his relationship with his girlfriend. He says Kevin then choke-slammed him to the ground and, just like Kevin’s signature move, Tristen says he hit is head so hard on the ground he blacked out.

Cops arrested Kevin because they felt he was the “primary aggressor.”

As for Tristen’s arrest two hours later, Tristen’s uncle told cops the young man, who is 6’5″ and 200 lbs, was drunk and had “slung his mom around the kitchen” and tried attacking him as well.
