Early career (1970–1982)
Championship Wrestling from Florida (1982–1987)- Known as the heel "Boston Battler", Sullivan's "Prince of Darkness" gimmick started during this time, adopting the persona of an occultist and cult leader who would invoke the powers of dark spirits in promos and matches. The gimmick was inspired byy the satanic panic of the 1980's that was a huge hit with the help of "Maniac" Mark Lewin (Purple Haze), Mike Davis, Bob Roop, The Lock and Luna Vachon and others as the Army of Darkness. His biggest rivals during this time included Dusty Rhodes, Barry Windham, and his former partner Mike Graham. Sullivan split his time with International Championship Wrestling and brought "The Prince of Darkness" gimmick there, along with Lewin and Roop. He had the Fallen Angel as his valet, who later became known as Woman. Sullivan was the top heel in ICW when the company first went national and had noted feuds with Austin Idol, Superstar Billy Graham, Bruiser Brody, Joe Savoldi and Blackjack Mulligan.
Jim Crockett Promotions/World Championship Wrestling (1987–1991)- Sullivan formed The Varsity Club upon arrival in Jim Crockett Promotions with Mike Rotunda and Rick Steiner. They immediately started feuding with Jimmy Garvin because Sullivan wanted Garvin's wife Precious for himself. This feud lasted a while with Sullivan kayfabe breaking Garvin's leg at one point. Steiner left the group and was replaced by "Dr. Death" Steve Williams and Dan Spivey. They feuded with Dusty Rhodes, The Road Warriors, Rick Steiner and Eddie Gilbert. Sullivan even attacked Gilbert's wife Missy Hyatt.
Smoky Mountain Wrestling (1992–1994)

Return to WCW (1994–2001)- Retirement and switch to booking duties (1997–2001)-
Afterward, Sullivan and Horseman Chris Benoit began a feud much like his with Pillman. It lasted for over a year, during with Benoit took Woman from him. Sullivan brought in Jacquelyn to help him and added Konnan to the Dungeon. He lost a retirement match to Benoit at Bash at the Beach on July 13, 1997. This loss gave him more time to concentrate on his job as booker. Sullivan stayed on as the booker or a member of the WCW booking committee after he put Benoit over and made a brief on-screen appearance with the reformed Varsity Club of Mike Rotunda and Rick Steiner with their cheerleader, Leia Meow. After a couple of months, he was back off television. He talks aboput the famous genius of the Bookerman match with Brian Pillman, Hulk Hogan sleeping at his house the night before he booked the NWO angle of Hulk Hogan turning heel . The booker of the greatest angle of the 90's which most fans know started the attitude era in which the WWE copied Sullivans remarkable booking style. THIS IS A MUST LISTEN FOLKS
