Wrestling sabotaged:

WWE Alum, Kevin Sullivan, says modern wrestling is being sabotaged by social media...

"I think they sabotaged themselves with social media. ... The only one that doesn't seem to do that is Brock and there's a mystique about Brock. I think there should be somebody there looking at what they are sending out, they should have to get an 'okay' before sending it out. ... Guys that are on the independents and in Impact, Sami Callihan when he hit Eddie Edwards with the baseball bat, everybody thought he was gonna apologize instead he said 'You guys should be talking about me' and people were hot at him. ... That's how you could bring it back, it's never gonna bring it all the way back but fans will still believe in something."

There was a lot of conversation about it. People were really high on Davey Boy Smith."
