Three months ago, it was reported that former WCW wrestler and booker Kevin Sullivan, whose impact on the wrestling business is undeniable, had been hospitalized following what was described as a “devastating accident.” Subsequently, it would be disclosed he was dealing with sepsis and encephalitis, which prompted his daughter to launch a GoFundMe to help with his medical bills. However, it has now sadly been confirmed by SlamWrestling.net that the 74-year-old has passed away.
Sullivan broke into the business in 1970, and while he was successful over the next decade, his career really went to the next level in Championship Wrestling From Florida during the ’80s. This was because he embraced an occultist cult leader gimmick, which was inspired by the Satanic panic of the time. From there, he would work for Jim Crockett Promotions/World Championship Wrestling, Smokey Mountain Wrestling, and Eastern/Extreme Championship Wrestling. Yet, despite being so well-traveled and the fact he booked WCW in the ’90s, he is likely best known to modern-day fans for being Nancy Benoit’s ex-husband.
