Kevin Sullivan, the legendary wrestler known as The Taskmaster, has passed away at the age of 74. Following a serious accident in May, from which he never fully recovered, WWE confirmed his death early Thursday morning, prompting an outpouring of tributes to the former World Championship Wrestling star.
Last month, a GoFundMe was launched after Sullivan’s daughter, Nicole, revealed the extent of his injuries sustained while signing autographs in Florida. Nicole described the “devastating accident,” which required emergency surgery to save his leg and life but led to severe complications, including sepsis and encephalitis. The fundraiser, which has since ended, raised over $54,000 to help with the family’s medical expenses during his prolonged ICU stay. WWE has praised Sullivan as a “unique and influential figure in sports-entertainment history,” and both celebrities and wrestling fans are now honoring him on social media..
