Here in this Title Match Network exclusive, find out from Sabu about the night he had his first WWF (now WWE) dark match. Sabu would wrestle Scott Taylor (later Scotty 2 Hotty) and Owen Hart as his tryout matches.
Did you know that Sabu was offered a spot in the 1994 Royal Rumble? Allegedly, WWF reached out but Paul Heyman (owner of ECW) fought against the idea.
We also discuss Sabu's early memories of the Memphis territory. Hear about the first time he met a young Chris Candido as well.

THIS GUY IS A GREAT INTERVIEWER. I've seen many of these, several with Greg Valentine, & others, now Sabu....
He stays out of it, lets them talk but helps bring it out of them to let them talk. GREAT JOB! "This" is how you interview someone.
Truly appreciate the kind words - really means a lot! Thank you for watching our series with Sabu & Greg Valentine. We’ll have much more from both legendary gentlemen
Thank you Sabu for all you put your body through for our entertainment over the years, I appreciate you and your contributions to the Wrestling business as well!🙏💖
its still real to me damnit!
@@GregLionProductions Yes!!! I was gonna say it but had to check first!
@@GregLionProductions took the words right out of my mouth brother
I’m disappointed that neither the WCW nor the WWE wanted to put him over.
He would’ve been one hell of a main eventer which he was in ECW
I worked on a few JCW matches and Sabu would be out back in the alley with a little tiny dog in his hand walking around making people laugh. Sabu is very cool!
Hell yeah bro. Literally anyone who has ever worked with him respects him and likes him. If you find someone talking bad about Sabu get away from them because they are the problem
Sabu is the living Guru of Hardcore Wrestling in USA (with others great wrestlers). Great old school solid worker, his stint in WWECW was a mess but at least did a very good matches against Angle, Cena and Mysterio.
it felt like he had a hard time adapting to the WWE style, which isn't anyone's fault. He just excels in better situations.
@@justinjc1939 his best stuff was in Japan right before ECW imo
Love Sabu and i hope he stays healthy mind body and spirit.
I love Sabu, he’s such cool dude.. his uncle taught him right..Sabu would make a great trainer..
He does occasional training at certain gyms actually
Sabu is the man
Respect to Sabu
Back when Vince rebooted ECW it was said that Vince liked Sandman & Sabu & wanted to give them "the benefit of the doubt"
Refreshing to hear such honesty
he is a amazing man . always will be.
Sabu had a unique wrestling style. Loads of talent one of the top 5 mid 90s-late 90s era.
Sabu was huge in ECW in the mid 90's. He should have been paid a lot more, he was so much better than the jibronies who did got a boatload of cash.
The 90s, the greatest time to be a wrestling fan! So much soul and passion. Sabu put his life on the line more than anyone out there. We need a statue of him built somewhere.
Absolutely not. The 80s
@@bernielomaxsmustache7204 Lame.
@@bernielomaxsmustache72041988 wrestling found the perfect balance between good and ring wrestling and good storytelling and character work. Early 80s had some great character work but the match quality was not always up to par. I started watching in 1983 but I also was in the tape trading era so I seen everything before that, and in my opinion you can find some stuff from 1988 going forward that would stand up to today's work, but you would be hard-pressed before that
Sabu may have not been rank 1 in WWE, but he's rank 1 in our hearts! ❤
Fun fact: that table spot was later used at the 2007 royal rumble
Yeah that was exactly what i was thinking
Sabu is a legend, you hear me? LEGEND!! This guy put his LIFE on the line, he did not need Vince at all! I understand why The Sheik didn't like that family, because they're all fake smiles, just like their promises. I admire him even more.
Sabu was loyal and that is a good thing. But he gave his loyalty to a guy (Paul) who just used people and had no sense of loyalty back. There could be good reasons not to go to the WWE too early, but turning down good paying work like that spot in the Rumble was not a smart thing to do.
But that said, 1995 would have been a terrible year for him to go to the WWF. He wasn't a Shawn Michaels guy and he had no friends in the locker room. Given the priorities of the WWE in 1995, I would guess they were looking for an undercard guy to bump heavy and lose to stars. He would have gotten slightly higher pay and a few years of work, but I'm not sure it would have lead anywhere for him.
If he was younger and was offered a WWE deal a few years later, he could have gone to the top. But 1995 was one of the worst years ever to be in the WWE without friends.
Sabu and the hammer have the best shoots
I enjoyed watching Sabu, dude always did some crazy shit
Such a great dude!!
SABU! SABU! SABU! SABU!
I actually watched an indy show with lawler vs Sabu in 2002 or 03 in Kentucky and it seemed to me they both did their stuff ! I was happy !!! When worlds collide with both legends doing their style !
Sabu is the type of guy to build a company on. Too bad loyalty doesn't pay the bills
Sabu Blu-ray Documentary or we riot ☠
I always have loved Sabu. I really think he should get much more of a push because he was absolute talent in the ring. He was underutilized absolutely.
Sabu and Taz one of the best matches ever
Sabu has definitely got his head screwed on straight, unlike many ex ECW vets
I don't think so. Steven Richards probably one of the healthiest looking vets, Blue Meanie great shape, RVD, Dreamer, Guido, Shane Douglas, Lance Storm, Francine too. Even for Sandman living the crazy life he did, he is doing pretty damn well.
@@pizzahighfive2612 Raven & Jerry Lynn too.
@@mkproductions2.0Raven is an absolute genius fr
Loyalty seems to always backfire.
Indeed it does.
Wrong mindset
In Memphis, Sabu wrestled barefooted and he's the only guy to hit the ceiling lights in the stadium off the top rope. He was Sabu the Elephant Boy. RVD wrestled there barefooted too.
The first time I saw Sabu I had just turned on my t.v. late at night and I see this Guy jumping from a ladder in the ring and landing on a guy on the floor. I immediately had to watch the match because who does that? "Sabu." Big Fan.
Although ECW wouldn't have become what it did without him, RVD, Sandman, Dreamer and all the guys that were there. I kinda wish the ones involved in that early 90's invasion angle did sign with WWF when they were offered. The matches with Bret, Owen, Bulldog, Shawn, etc. would have been insane!
he is a amazing man.
Luv sabu I've had the honor of seeing this man entertain live an I will never 4get it
The way he refers to people as “the shits” makes me laugh. Idk why
Sabu tells it like it is. Even if it's a ugly truth.
Anyone got footage of a fucking Sabu vs Owen Hart match???
sabu is old school. unfortunately he cost himself a ton of dough being stand up guy.
There's something soul less and about your comment.. It's like to you, it's a bad thing that Sabu remained with his soul, principals and morals. So to you remaining with your soul is considered "Old school" now? Then F new school if that's the case. Sabu still made lots of money and had a hell of a life, what's the problem with that?! To Sabu, life is about living it how he wants and where he isnt controlled like a puppet. Many people are ok with getting the silver or the bronze but remain with freedom, not everyone wants to get the gold but be slaves for it. Wrestlers who become sell outs pretty much lived a false life of zero expression and zero choices, but with a ton of money which means nothing after you die, they lived their only life as a slave. When most people die they never say "I shoulda made more money". They usually say "I shoulda lived my life the way I wanted to". The part that I think is insanely messed up, is how if you don't give up your soul, then you don't really get etched in history... They'll try to hide you. That's something I feel is more important than money, is being remembered for your HARD work after your gone.. that immortal status. And Sabu 100% deserves to be in Hall of Fame and be remembered accurately forever.
@@pizzahighfive2612 not sure what you are arguing here. I said Sabu was old school. He held his ground and his own creative freedom was more important than selling out to VKM.
@@pizzahighfive2612 definitely agree with this the only man who isn’t a vince puppet is brock 😂
@@pizzahighfive2612yea, but in the end heyman screwed everyone in ecw to go to wwe. Heyman didn’t pay his guys that stayed loyal to him. So yea sabu is old school
@@stoppedbythebumperFacts! Brock knows money and who is going to tell him no???
Great Interview 👍
I follow sabu in IG and he posted a picture of the coke he was snorting a few months ago 🤣
Owen heart vs Sabu is a dream match in that time
Lawler is right. Don't give everything to the fans. Do the least to get the most . Sabu is right as well as far as the whole try out concept. If the guy is an established worker and they know the guy, then you either want them or you don't.
Love u sabu n miss u
He eventually did that table spot at royal rumble 2007
Thank you sir
Damn for someone that's a Paul Heyman Guy and an ECW Original he's alright with Jerry Lawler
I got to really like Sabu. I didn't really know him before.
No one knows anyone til they've seen them what a redundant statement 😂
Just curious... he mentions a match with Owen Hart in this shoot. Does anyone know if it was a dark match? Or uploaded somewhere? I can't locate it here on TH-cam.
It was a dark match during a Wrestling Challenge taping in 1993
$300 a night for a tryout in 1993 for WWF back then? Wow
Its still real to me dammit
Shame, Sabu is a man of his word with a sense of loyalty and Heyman wasn't worth it, pos he is
Sabu has a little brain damage and trouble talking, but he's a cool dude, and paid his dues in the business, brother. *points toward sky*
If a Marlboro red was a person it would be sabu
sabu hof22
Haha he could make a broom stick look good
How could anybody refuse that offer under the circumstances. Really?
Should have taken the money
I gotta doo doo
saaaaaboooooooooooo
Say what you will Vince is the man! He rules them all!
Vince is evil
This didn't age well lol
Who is his uncle?
The Original Sheik
@@TitleMatchWrestling makes total sense.
you can tell he's reading a script.
Sabu should have lied to vince and double crossed him!
Micheal Rueles…….what’s that bubba?
Yikes
What's that white stuff in his mouth?
First comment.
Good idea.
Good job Phil Brooks.
I hate to disagree with a legend like Sabu but Vince didn't make wrestling better, he just wanted it all for himself
I feel bad for Sabu. He gave his loyalty to Paul Haymen but then he got stabbed in the back by him
Man look at that beak
AHAHAHA 🤣
When he talks makes me uncomfortable he seems off
Sabu= king of botches
You mean Botchberg
This guy reminds me of Forrest Gump
