WWE Hall of Famer, Abdullah The Butcher, answers questions about blood diseases in the wrestling world during two separate shoot interviews.

JULY 25th 2011 - Devon Nicholson filed a suit against Larry Shreve (Abdullah's real name) in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, charging negligence, assault, and battery.

Nicholson's lawsuit seeks $6,500,000 in damages.

Under Ontario's Family Law Act, co-plaintiffs include Laura Joan Nicholson, Arthur Gwyn Nicholson, Frederick Kerry Nicholson, and Joan Greenwell, each claiming $40,000 for general damages.

The lawsuit stems from a 2007 bout in Ottawa, Ontario, where Nicholson alleges that Shreve cut him with a razor blade without his permission. Nicholson alleges that Shreve's blood mixed with his own and gave him Hepatitis C.

Nicholson learned of his infection in mid-2009. In September 2009, World Wrestling Entertainment pulled a three-year contract offer to Nicholson, allegedly on the basis of his disease.

Over the past couple of years, Nicholson has been collecting thoughts from wrestlers about the use of blood in matches for a documentary entitled Don't Bleed On Me.

Originally from Windsor, Ont., Shreve carved out a legendary career as Abdullah the Butcher, a maniacal wrestler bend on destruction and drawing blood from opponents. He lives in Atlanta, Georgia, and runs a restaurant.

According to Nicholson, his lawyer met with Shreve in September 2010 in Atlanta, and Shreve agreed to provide his blood work. Yet, the suit alleges, Shreve never provided the promised sample or result.

On July 17th, Shreve posted a note on his Facebook page: "I received my medical reports; I have NO hepatitis, or AIDS and anything. My blood tests are ALL negatives then these fools will be prosecured in justice... Hannibal, Billy Graham and especially New Jack, the most vulgar Boy whom business knew!"

Ronald Caza, a partner at Heenan Blaikie, is representing the 28-year-old Nicholson.

  • He wretled in double blood matches every night of his career for over 50 years and wasn't scared of HIV or anything. What an idiot! This man needs to show his blood tests. His game has gone on long enough.

  • He obviously has Hep C. If he didn't he would have provided blood tests by now.

  • @r1g8p7 It is funny how all you Nicholson supporters expose your ignorance by how you can not properly type, spell, capitalize, punctuate, or use English, which invalidates your gibberish comments from the start. In 2 days, Nicholson is due in court to lose his junk suit he frivolously filed against McMahon. Nicholson knows he is going to lose that suit, which is why he tried showing up to a McMahon show and got kicked out on his butt. I think he has already lost his junk Abdullah suit

  • @tvlicenceevader666 Clearly, you have no clue how professional wrestling works in addition to not knowing typing, spelling, capitalization, and punctuation according to this gibberish you spewed. In wrestling, guys get "married" to other guys who they work with extensively. Abdullah was "married" to a few guys, such as Bruiser Brody, Stan Hansen, and Mick Foley who he worked with thousands of times. NONE of those guys ever had any diseases, so you and Nicholson LOSE.

  • @peterp21 I am calmly and rationally enjoying owning and punking you super mark smarks on this video with facts and reason. You super mark smarks who have no clue how law, health, business, or the real world works since you live in your mom's basement. You super mark smarks who say wrestling is "still real to you damn it" and blindly believe this clearly fictional video. You all start crap with me and then I WIN. Now, that you are defeated, I will ignore you on this video here.

  • @MRobert21 Jesus, calm the fuck down, supermark.

  • he was never concerned about aids or hep c because he knew the guys he was wrestling against? complete bullshit! he travelled the world for decades and wrestled whoever the booker wanted him to wrestle. id hazard a guess that abdullah has worked with hundreds of dudes who he had never met before. hes a fat fucking liar.

  • he's lying. so in the 60s and 70s before everyone was scared of aids, abby was rubbing alcohol on his head to make sure everything was clean? so abby knew of hep c and aids before everyone else? he cut hannibal with the same blade he cut his fat diseased self with and gave the guy hepatitis c and fucked his life up. if he had nothing to hide he'd do the test. hes full of shit and he has breasts. fuck him.

  • what a fucking asshoe. he should be taking out of the hall of fame and should provide financial support to the Hannibal to whom which he gave hep c too. this guy is ridiculous.

  • @bakonman12 i guess you could say that, but i only watch the super bowl for the commercials!

  • @TheRealyAwesomeman12 so your a banwagon?

  • @flatulatingmarmoset you dont even watch the super bowl?!?!?!?! im not a football fan but i still watch the super bowl!
