On the “Tuesdays with the Taskmaster” podcast, Kevin Sullivan discussed the Dungeon Of Doom stable and the idea behind the formation of the faction. The gimmick, which Sullivan adopted on screen as the Taskmaster, took on Hulk Hogan in 1995. He said,
“Well, somebody had creative control, meaning Hulk, and if you look at what Hulk was doing is, he was going back to the guys he drew money with. So [Paul Wight became Andre the Giant]. The Renegade, remember him? He became Ultimate Warrior until we got Ultimate Warrior. He surrounded himself with guys that he had drawn money with, Tenta, Duggan, Brutus; he brought all his friends in. The thing about all his friends, they had drawn money, but the business was rapidly changing, as you know.”
“So my idea about the Dungeon of Doom was, ‘Let me put them all in one segment and kind of encapsulate it there.’ So I won’t have to put them all through the show,” he explained. “Because, like I said, it was changing rapidly. We had the luchadores and cruiserweights, and the business was rapidly changing. It was hard for him to see the business changing because he had been so successful.”
