Two months ago, it was reported that former WCW wrestler and booker Kevin Sullivan, whose impact on the wrestling business is undeniable, had sadly been hospitalized. The exact nature of the 74-year-old’s condition, which necessitated emergency surgery, wasn’t disclosed, although the unfortunate situation was described at the time as being very serious. And now, a GoFundMe has been launched to assist him with medical bills and other expenses due to his current insurance being almost exhausted. 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, Smoky 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.
