    I was one of the few people at Florida shows who cheered for Sullivan. Once a crowd turned on me and my dad had to get me outta there while we were being pelted with drinks and whatever else they could throw. I also took a couple of punches it felt like. I met Kevin two years ago and got to tell him the story and he laughed pretty hard about it 😆

      I never knew it was hundreds of thousands....jesus. The WWE pays Heyman 2 million a year, you think Paul could come off enough to at least partially repay the stars he owes that helped make him who he is.....smh. One of my favorite bookers and I have a lot of respect for him when it comes to knowing the business but there's things like this that make it impossibile for me to respect him more as a person.

    I remember when he was training with Tony Atlas. I was fortunate enough as a kid to have been living in North Alabama so I first knew Kevin when he was a part of Jimmy Harts stable in Memphis. Kevin must have been competing in body building around that time he was shredded. Then in 1981 my parents divorced and I moved with mom to central Florida when Kevin returned. This was the beginning of his heel turn. Then he brings in Jake Roberts,Roop and of course the Purple Haze. What a storyline very entertaining. Taskmaster👍

    I don't think I knew Kevin Sullivan was Power Lifter until Tony Atlas interview. Is there a reason didn't Capitalize his Last Name? That is funny when he was talking about Ric Flair calling him The Devil. I think depends where lived if saw Florida Championship Wrestling. I think in NY that was on UHF from many I've seen in interviews but not sure if I had it here. Smokey Mountain nobody saw or heard of at all hehe. I remember when New Jack came from there to ECW nobody had any clue. Its not like had YT or tape trading was that big. NWA most knew Jim Crockett Promotions as it was on TBS. I'd see WCCW or ESPN had on Memphis or AWA. Some Channels had Mexican Triple A or CMML. FMW or XPW very difficult to see heh. Spike The Arm ;).

    Best storyline is Austin v McMahon, and it's not close. That drew more money than hundreds of great angles combined. It lasted years, put WWF ahead for good, killed WCW, and had 7-8 million people watching every week, some of them never to return to watching.

    • @snowjorden
      @snowjorden Рік тому

      Well now that youve gotten the WWE version of the story outta the way.
      Probably not when adjusted for inflation.
      Kinda just 2 years, but then lingered on doing nothing for years.
      It helped put WWE ahead.
      No, AOL/Time Warner killed WCW.
      Eh... more like 5 every week, 7 or 8 if WCW was pre-empted.

      I think after the grind of the last few years of WCW he had had enough for a bit. Though he's told that story before where they apparently talked to him. He actually had a meeting with Stephanie and it didn't go too great. According to Kevin she approached it like he was some newbie off the street looking for a job and her first question to him was "And who are you exactly?" He claims he told her: "Ask your father." 😄
