Corny talking around the 59:00 mark about how Kevin had nothing to do with the Benoit thing.

I don't have sources handy, but I seem to recall seeing Flair call Sullivan a brilliant booker, while Bret Hart said he couldn't book his way out of a paper bag.

I'm no 80s and 90s wrestling insider, but I suspect far more people would agree with Flair.

- I like Hart. Like a lot of people.
But guy is bitter as hell.

- Btw. RIP. Dude let this Earth on the day of my birthday!

Miss-read. By birthday is 5 of august!

Yeah I think Sullivan just happened to be holding the hot potato when the music stopped in that case.

I tend to take anything Bret says about anything that took place after the Screw Job with a grain of salt, that shit fucked with his head, couple that with WCW turning gold into shit, Owen's death and the concussions.

Dude was a GOAT in ring, loved his family and loved the business, and it all got tuned upside down on him and he became a bitter jaded old man.

He does always seem quite bitter in interviews I’ve seen of him.

RIP, my condolences to his family.

I remember back in 2007 when The benoit tragedy happened and there was that huge conspiracy around the internet forums and wrestling forums around kevin sullivan after this...

I always liked Kevin Sullivan. The whole Satanist thing visually had a big impact on me when I first seen him with Luna Vachon.

Then as I get older i realized how unbelivably BAWSTAHN his accent is, made me like him more.

Kevin Sullivan was my favorite heel of all-time. Absolutely love the stuff he did in Florida in the early 1980s. Kevin was very influential on future heels and eventually booked many of them too. His deranged promos were always fun to watch. The way he delivered his words along with his Boston accent really worked well.
