Kevin Sullivan knows a thing or two when it comes to great wrestling factions.
WCW Legend Kevin Sullivan recently sat down with WrestleZone‘s Managing Editor, Bill Pritchard. While discussing some of the greatest factions in wrestling history, Sullivan revealed what The Bloodline, Four Horsemen, and nWo all had in common.
“But do you know what the Horsemen, The Bloodline, and the nWo have in common? There was only four guys in the group.” Kevin Sullivan said. “And each had a great manager, the manager of his time. And then the nWo, I think, splintered when we started just passing on T-shirts; I think they should never have gone past Syxx Pac, Hulk, Scott Hall, and Kevin Nash.
“The one that was very, very important, think about this, Syxx Pac was like at the bottom of the ladder for the people. But he was the guy the fans knew they could beat him up; who’s a snot-nosed little kid? He’s in two Hall of Fame’s for two different groups: DX and the nWo. He was very, very important.
“But again, like I said, they had JJ Dillon for the Horsemen. They had Eric for the nWo, and then they had Paul E for The Bloodline. I think that’s a perfect number. Because once you start expanding, your eyes can’t take in 30 guys with black and white t-shirts on. I think that right now, wrestling is as hot as it’s ever been. In fact, I think it’s hotter. When AEW drew that 81,000 people, they sold over 70,000 without even announcing a match? That’s pretty phenomenal.”
