The third episode of “1 Of A Kind With RVD” looked at the career of ECW Legend Sabu.
RVD, who has been good friends with Sabu for decades, spoke about his career and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On Sabu Intentionally Botching Spots To Fool The Dirt Sheets: “He would do that and he would tell me he is gonna do it, and then I would see the write up and they would be criticizing him saying that he missed a bunch of spots because it was so different. It wouldn’t even, it wouldn’t fit in. And the only reason to do it would be, ‘Hey, that would happen.’”
“You know, but everyone’s gonna think he f*cked up. So he would do that for no reason. Like boom, set me up chair top rope. He would slip and like, fall to the floor and like, and everyone would be like, ‘what just happened?’”
“And he wanted it that realism and, and wanted to work the people in the, in the moment so much that, you know, sacrificed some of his credibility with certain marks. “
On Sabu’s AEW appearances: “I knew that he was gonna be, debuting on Wednesday and then after that, I guess I knew that he was gonna be part of Sunday.”
On the potential of Sabu getting inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame next year at WrestleMania 40 in Philadelphia: “Yeah, hopefully he would. He’s gotta have a good positive energy run for a while…”
