Tommy Dreamer and Bully Ray pay tribute to the late, great Sabu, a legit innovator and pioneer in the business who put ECW on the map, and one of the most extreme wrestlers to ever step in the ring. They share incredible stories from Sabu’s groundbreaking career including his wild barbed wire matches, the time he taped up his broken jaw mid-match just so he could finish it, some of his more infamous high-flying spots, how and why he started going through tables, and all the lessons he learned from his uncle and mentor, The Sheik. They also remember Sabu’s match with John Cena that got Vince McMahon’s attention, the WWE’s original plans for Sabu, and why his WWE career pretty much ended before it began. They talk Paul Heyman & Sabu, Sabu’s aura and legacy, and how the loss of his wife, Melissa Coates, may have played a part in Sabu’s own passing. Plus, Jericho shares the crazy match that Sabu wanted to have with him on the Jericho Cruise!
