– During a recent edition of Busted Open Radio, former ECW and WWE Superstar Tommy Dreamer spoke about the late Kevin Sullivan, who passed away last week. Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):
Tommy Dreamer on first meeting Kevin Sullivan: “I realized I met Kevin Sullivan in 1991 and I was 20 years old. I never realized Kevin was 21 years older than me. So I’m wrestling this guy who’s 41-42 … don’t know why he took an interest in me. He would say I was the only babyface with child-bearing hips.”
On learning from Sullivan in ECW: “His time in ECW was so, so valuable to me. [Sullivan] could go … his upper body was always jacked.”
On Dreamer offering him a job in WCW: “I just said to him, ‘Every time you offer me money, you’re doubling it, so maybe I’ll be worth more later,’ and he paused and he goes, ‘You’re a smart kid, I always knew you were.'”
