Nobody made me want to be a wrestler more than Sabu.
R.I.P. to a true hardcore legend
Suicidal, homicidal, genocidal 4-ever

He was an outlaw and a gamechanger.
He inspired so many that stepped inside a GCW ring and he will continue to inspire for generations to come.
His legacy will last forever and he will never be forgotten.
Rest in Peace, and…
Long Live SABU ☝️ pic.twitter.com/xSQuNwo1n1

I first met Sabu in 1993 when he was wrestling for a new promotion called Eastern Championship Wrestling. His in ring style was wild, innovative and he showed absolutely no fear. I’m glad that the last time I saw him, I got to tell him how much I appreciated him. RIP, my friend. https://t.co/n9cZAnVqSe
