Kevin Sullivan wore many hats in wrestling: evil heel, spurned husband, head booker, and more. News of his death at the age of 74 spread the morning of August 9, 2024, and the response was nothing but respect for the Taskmaster.

As an old school wrestling fan, over the years I was amazed at Kevin's knowledge of the history of pro wrestling. As a booker, he was one of the best. As a heel, he created one of the best personas of his generation. Thank you, Kevin, for the many years of great wrestling entertainment. Rest in Peace.

I remember watching Sullivan wrestling at the National Guard Armory in ft.lauderdale on Friday night's. He would team with Mike Graham and Steve Kiern. Those were fun times. Especially watching the crowds react.

In my young mark days I thought Kevin was a devil worshipper. He was one of those dangerous heels you read about in the old school publications.

Whoa another wrestler I remember back as a kid. I remember watching the AWA's All-Star Wrestling show on Saturday and Sunday mornings. In Milwaukee during the 70's we only got the AWA's shows. Later on though we got more. The wwf was everywhere, but the NWA, WCW, WCCW, etc. Kevin Sullivan was a really unique character. With 👩Woman👩 at his side he was very dangerous. However when the Chris Benoit murder/suicide happened many people said that Kevin Sullivan was involved. It's sad when something like that can end up becoming part of your historical story. Sullivan did A LOT for Professional Wrestling.

Based upon his physical gifts alone..... We would be celebrating the life of an accomplished mid-carder. But adding in his pronounced intellect, knowledge, creativity, and theatrical presence. We are reflecting upon a great man who was at the pinnacle of his chosen profession.

Vancouver All-Star wrestling had very believable wrestling matches back in the day on Netflix. Oh studio wrestling I went to the PNE the Pacific international exhibition and tickets were $10 ringside $20 to be really close and that’s what made me a fan and now I am in the wrestling business Sergeant L Tomco, train me to be a wrestler😊

That 🌙night🌙 a little boy was killed. A wife was murdered. Now there have been rumors about Kevin Sullivan's involvement. He was married to Nancy before Chris Benoit was. During one of the on-screen gimmicks/stories, Nancy and Chris Benoit got together and the story called for them to betray Kevin. Which they did, both ON and OFF screen. Now another rumor that surfaced was that Kevin Sullivan was part of the Satanic church. An actual Dark Priest. How his character early on was based off of that persona. He supposedly said that he would have his revenge on both Chris and Nancy for his pain, and he again supposedly set out to somehow get back at Chris. Now that is definitely a "motive", however would anyone be that foolish to make a comment like that, and then follow through? Considering it was quite a while after the fact 🤔?? People have been killed for a lot less. Whoever was responsible for those horrific murders will have to answer to God. Whatever happened that night has passed away. IF he was involved he'll be answering for his actions.
