Kevin Sullivan(III)
- Actor
- Writer
- Producer
When Sullivan began his wrestling career he was immediately known as an
aggressive and talented wrestler. In the independents he was
accompanied by his then real life wife, Woman (Nancy Sullivan). He wore
yellow tights and face paint. He then joined the NWA (National
Wrestling Alliance) in the mid 80s and was back and fourth through the
indie federations but stayed in the NWA in the early 90s when it became
the Ted Turner based federation, the WCW (World Championship
Wrestling). He had many great matches. In 1994 when Hulk Hogan finished
one of his many feuds with Ric Flair, Kevin Sullivan started a feud
with the Hulkster which brightened his career. This feud with Hogan
lasted until some time in 1996. First Sullivan was joined by the
Butcher (Ed Leslie, Brutis Beefcake as he was known in the WWF), and
Avalanche (John Tenta, Earthquake as he was known in the WWF) and the
threesome was called the Faces of Fear.
The feud with Sullivan's stable and Hogan came to a halt in mid 1995
but started again in the late summer. It was revealed that Sullivan was
in cahoots with the Giant and the Master Iaukea was supposedly
Sullivan's father. Sullivan would be known as The "Taskmaster". The new
stable was called the Dungeon of Doom. They were soon joined by Kamala
"The Ugandan Giant", The Shark (John Tenta), and the Zodiac (Ed Leslie,
Brutis Beefcake), and Meng. During the Halloween Havoc 95 match
Sullivan and the Giant were joined by Jimmy Hart after Hart attacked
Hogan. It was then that Yeti (Ron Reis) joined up with the massive
group but then disappeared after that appearance. After many matches
with Hogan, Sullivan and his Dungeon of Doom joined Ric Flair and the
Four Horseman in early 1996.
More members joined Sullivan in 1996. The One Man Gang, Loch Ness
(Giant Haystacks), Z Gangsta (Zues, Tom Lister Jr.), The Final Solution
(the late Jeep Swenson) Konnan, Maxx Muscle, The Barbarian, The
Leprechaun (Sgt. Buddy Lee Parker), Jackie (Jacqueline in the WWE),
Hugh Morrus, Big Bubba Rogers (The Big Bossman),and the "Total Package"
Lex Luger. The Dungeon of Doom shortly vanished after Hogan joined the
NWO and Sullivan took a break and became a booker for WCW. He later
showed up a few years later for a short stint as a commentator and as a
manager with Mike Rotunda.
