Did Kevin Sullivan do it?

The Fallen Angel was his female sidekick who was evil but had model-quality looks. The "Fallen Angel" later became "Woman" and was Sullivan's real-life wife Nancy, who later left him for fellow professional wrestler Chris Benoit
Once Sullivan sent Pillman packing, the Dungeon and the Horsemen rejoined forces to get rid of Hulk Hogan and his friends. They brought in The Giant, Maxx Muscle and Big Bubba Rogers to help. They even formed the Alliance To End Hulkamania with the Horsemen in a failed attempt to do so. When they couldn't get the job done, Sullivan and Chris Benoit of the Horsemen picked up where Pillman left off and started a feud. This was a brutal feud and lasted over a year. Benoit stole Sullivan's real life wife Woman from him onscreen and ironically, in real life, too. Sullivan brought in Jacquelyn to help him and also added Konnan to the Dungeon.

Sullivan lost a retirement match to Benoit at Bash at the Beach on July 13, 1997. He was already the booker so it gave him more time to do that job. He soon came up with an angle where Woman would be topless on a PPV, but she refused and left WCW. They divorced and she married Benoit.
Sullivan is among those blamed for the 2000 departure of Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko, Eddie Guerrero and Perry Saturn from WCW, though by no direct action of his own. After the departure of Eric Bischoff and Vince Russo, the resulting chaos led to Sullivan's promotion to head booker. This move infuriated a number of WCW wrestlers, given Sullivan's history of professional rivalries (notably Benoit) and poor decisions. Sullivan booked Benoit to win the WCW title at Souled Out 2000 in a desperate attempt to quell the uprising, but Benoit, Malenko, Guererro and Saturn would quit the night after, immediately signing with the WWF. Sullivan would be fired before WCW's sale in 2001.

Sullivan still makes occasional appearances on the independent circuit, mainly in Florida. He owns a gym in the Florida Keys, called Froggy's Fitness ([1]). On June 25th 2007 Kevin's ex-wife Nancy was found dead in the home she shared with husband Chris Benoit. On June 26th, police revealed that it was the result of a double murder-suicide perpetrated by Chris Benoit.

It is a possibility that the authorities should be looking into. Should be easy to find out his whereabouts during the weekend.



The way they explained Benoits hanging - would be difficult to do alone.

I think this is something that needs to be looked into. Bemit took Sullivan's wife from him and I think it is possible that Sullivan stewed over this for many years, He may have even resented Daniel as the son he should have had, not Benoits. Sullivan was very dark, macabre, & vengefull. I would not be surprised if he used chloroform to disable Benoit, tie Woman up and put the plan in action. I could see him delight in his "revenge" over Woman & Benoit - with Daniel just icing on the cake. If this were true, he would thoroughly enjoy hanging Benoit just knowing Benoit would be blamed for all 3 killings. I think this would explain the crazy text messages Benoit is suppossed to have sent. I remember how Sullivan used to ramble on making little or no sense in interviews. I think this makes sense. Benoit never rambled incoherrantly. Maybe I am just shocked Benoit could have done this. He always appeared cocky and I am sure wanted things done his way. It is certainly possible Benoit did it. I just hope the true killer is identified and punished appropriatly if it isn't Benoit. If Benoit was the killer I'll just have to accept it. I really hope however it was someone other than Benoit but it is important that the truth come out. This is just a terrible tragedy and my heart goes out to all the Benoit family



Just about as bad is this is the McMahon dies in a limo explosion. Just imagine 3rd cousins, family friends or whatever who knew Vince but not well enough to be "in" on the angle. I know they would realize with the type of work he is in, it is possible to be faked but doubt they would not be in shock enough to even consider it may not be real.McMahon needs to be forced out! This angle is unforgivable.

There is also the issue with Sherri. She was close to Kevin. One week to the day before the benoit stuff, Sherri is found dead. Cause is still unknown. Reports say it is an unnatural death, and not a typical "wrestler death"



The story so far about benoit does not add up. They are blaming Roids. yet accourding to his Dr. he tistostrone (sp) levels were low, not high. Even if it was high, he would have no need to tie up nancy, he would of simply beat her todeath.



There is also the time line issue. What reason would he have to wait several hours between the time that nancy was killed and the time the son was killed?? Then several hours after that kill himself??? The reports said that the gym was full of empy liqur bottles. It would of been hard to hang himself sober, almost impossable drunk.



what about the text messages, why were they from both phones??



Also, on wickipida (sp), someone reported the death of nancy 14 hours before the bodys were found. The IP address was traced back to the same city that the WWE HQ is, but not to any of the WWE computers.

As crazy as Kevin Sullivan a satanist killing Benoit sounds - Would anyone think that was any crazier than Benoit killing his kid, wife and self last week?



I think there is motive, and it should be investigated.



Police get it wrong all the time.

I think its hard for Benoit's fans to accept that he killed Nancy and Daniel, not to mention committed suicide, so they are pinning it on Kevin. Plus, people have to have a conspiracy for everything now! If Chris didn't do it, I'm sure his obviously heartbroken father wouldn't have been on tv accepting it and feeling remorse. And the conspiracy idiots will probably now say HE was in on it too! I can't say im a fan of Sullivan particularly, but I have to give him credit for one thing- he played his role of Satanic mastermind so well that everyone who can't accept the obvious, that Benoit lost it and murdered his family, can make him a scapegoat!

One needs to also remember that Chris Benoit was at the doctor on Friday moring. this would have been a perfect time for someone, including Kevin to enter the house without a struggle. I think the police need to not just treet this open and shut like happens soooo many other times, and look into other theories.

i dk if thats a lead

but has anyone ever thought of y the police entered benoits home in the first place, the neighbor called right

well how did he kno something was going on if benoit killed himself by hanging

thats a silent death

and i doubt he did it by a window

becuz then someone would see him and stop it

so y wasnt the neighbor considered a suspect

if i were the police id look into that

thats just my 2 cents

regardless its trajic

It would be something worth looking into, IMO, instead of automatically jumping on the "Benoit did it" bandwagon. I'm pretty disgusted with the replies here--"Benoit did it because the police/media said so."



He might have and he might not have. I think ALL angles need to be looked at. Don't pick a theory, stick with it, and make the pieces fit. Look at EVERYTHING.

Did Kevin Sullivan Murder Chris Benoit and His Family?







By Johnny Angel



(Former Pro Wrestling Champion)



Now known as Rev. Johnny Lee Clary



World-Wide Evangelist







The tragic deaths of Chris Benoit and his wife Nancy and son Daniel have shocked the wrestling world. The police are calling it a double-murder-suicide, but is it really? Let’s look at some facts. It has been 10 years exactly since Nancy divorced Kevin Sullivan to marry Chris Benoit. In the 1980’s Sullivan, along with his then-wife Nancy, were running a gimmick in wrestling of how they were Satanists, and Nancy was known as “The Fallen Angel.” She later became known as “Woman.” The trouble with the Satanists gimmick was it was for real, and was not a work, or fake. In the 1990’s Kevin Sullivan was the booker for WCW, and he scripted his wife Nancy into having an affair with Chris Benoit who was a member of the Four Horsemen. This made for a good angle, except, the acting became reality as Chris and Nancy actually fell in love and Nancy divorced Sullivan to marry Benoit.







Benoit left the WCW to go to work for the WWE which was then known as the WWF. It is a fact that Sullivan threatened Benoit and told him he would kill him. Yes, that was 10 years ago, but Kevin Sullivan is no dummy. He is known for being a calculating, cold-hearted individual. Today, according to a source close to me, Kevin Sullivan is a high ranking member of the Satanic Church. The police need to consider the possibility that Sullivan carried out these gruesome murders in order to have his revenge, which is what Satanists live for. He could have entered the home, with an accomplice or accomplices and held the Benoit’s at gunpoint, Sullivan could have then bound up Nancy, and made Benoit and his son watch as he strangled the life out of her. Then the next day after making Benoit and his son spend the day in agony, murdered Benoit’s little boy because of his hatred for the offspring of Benoit and Nancy. Then he could have made Benoit wait an entire day before killing him to by hanging him in the basement.







By doing this, not only would Kevin Sullivan have lived out his Satanic Church creed with his lust for revenge, but he would have destroyed Chris Benoit’s reputation which is what has happened now as the wrestling world is attacking the memory of Chris Benoit remembering him as an insane baby killer and wife killer instead of the great World Champion wrestler and friend that he was.







Satanists hate the Bible and the police have stated that a Bible was found next to the bodies of Benoit’s wife and son. This would serve as a bizarre calling card as if to either say “What good did your Bible do you?” or to throw off investigators to keep them from suspecting Sullivan and his Satanists would have been involved.







Another thing to note is the fact that Kevin Sullivan was also associated with Sherri Martel, who died just a few days before the bodies of Chris Benoit, and his family was found, and the full details of Martell’s death have not been made known as of the time of this writing.







I wonder why the police have not even considered investigating the possibility the Kevin Sullivan killed Benoit, Nancy, and their child. It is certainly a possibility worth looking in to.







Also, Benoit was going to be crowned ECW World Champion on Sunday night. Why would he murder his family and kill himself when he was going to be on top again and make lots more money?







Why would he tie his wife up before killing her? He would have no reason to, but Kevin Sullivan sure would!







Sure he had some problems with Nancy, but that was 4 years ago and what married couple doesn’t have problems? Remember also that they reconciled and as far as everyone knows there has been no other incidents reported.







One also needs to consider the fact that Benoit loved his kids and was so proud of his son that was killed. His kids wore suits and ties to his wrestling events and was proud of their dad. He was loved and respected by all those who knew him.







In my opinion, there is no way he would have murdered his family. This whole murder case has Satanists written all over it and Sullivan is a Satanist and has the motive to murder them.







I am encouraging anyone who reads this to send this to police authorities and circulate it on the internet, so these facts can be investigated, before the case is closed and Benoit is written off in history a murderer. If Sullivan is the real killer, justice should be served!







As a former Pro Wrestler myself, now a born again Christian and world wide evangelist, I am hoping and praying for justice no matter who is responsible.

Im still 100% Benoit murdered his family so i looked in to and i found very very interesting results...



These two people made two very good arguments.

No Kevin Sullivan (a.k.a. WCW's Taskmaster), was at home having a beer with his brother Dave Sullivan while Dave was petting his new rabbit.





They say Chris Benoit killed his own wife and kid, and then himself. Had he not killed himself, his life would've been over anyway.
