Bully Ray Reflects On The Real-Life Heat Between Taz & Sabu In ECW

On the latest episode of “Busted Open Radio,” Bully Ray reflected on the legitimate tensions between talents in ECW back in the day.-

Ray particularly spoke about the well-known heat between Sabu and Taz that began when Sabu returned in 1995 after being fired for no-showing an ECW event in order to work a show in Japan. He said,

“I remember the night that Taz was standing in the middle of the ring, the lights went off in the ECW Arena, the lights came back on, and there was Sabu standing there, finger in the air. Taz wanted to rip Sabu’s head off of his shoulders and spit down his neck. For a 100% straight up shoot. To the point that Paul asked guys like me to be out there just in case. And I’m a young boy in ECW. I’m Jabroni Dudley at the time, but Paul’s like, ‘Bubba, you gotta be out there just in case anything goes down. I need you to get in the middle of this.’ Because there was so much animosity and hatred.”
