Former WWE, WCW, New Japan Pro Wrestling, ECW, AAA Lucha Libre and Impact Wrestling star Sabu does a career interview with The Hannibal TV including growing up the nephew of "WWE Hall of Famer" The Sheik who many consider to be the greatest heel of all time. Sabu's training for wrestling, promotions he started out in, going to Japan with The Sheik wrestling for companies like FMW and NJPW. We also get into ECW and many of the famous stories from there. ECW's working with WWE, Sabu wrestling for WCW and why it didn't work out as well as ultimately signing with WWE for a memorable run despite some behind the scenes issues. Sabu also talks his time in XPW, a live fan Q & A and much more!

THE HANNIBAL TV for people like me that didn't know who his uncle was until seeing sabu 1st on ecw we see his legendary legacy live on and evolve through his nephew i am truly grateful thank you both for this historical document
Thank you, sir, as usual, a great interview with an extraordinary man.
bought it! and it's great!!
When u get da chance can u interview trenesha biggers (rhaka Khan)?
You really went the extra mile I watched hours of Sabu Shoot interviews but still found new things I didn't know.
One of the most innovative performers of ALL time, bar none. This guy really should've been a millionaire.
vvstreetfightervv countless wrestlers have said that exact thing. That Sabu should he a multi millionaire for all he’s done for the industry. It’s sad really, he’s a living legend. Honestly can still go. Extremely talented. The WWE shoulda used him more when he was over there. Imagine this money in the bank Dream match that coulda and shoulda went down at a Mania (MITB Ladder Dream Mania Match: Sabu vs Eddie Gurrerro vs Jeff Hardy vs RVD vs Rey Mysterio vs Johnny Nitro.
Truly woulda been one the jest ladder matches ever if this actually coulda went down.
Or imagine a TLC tag RVD and Sabu vs Dudleyz vs Hardyz vs Edge and Christian vs Jericho and Benoit. Or a Tag TLC Sabu/RVD vs Hardyz vs New Age Outlaws vs MNM vs Dudleyz or even (Bubba and Spike)
In every line of work there are the exploiters and the exploited.
Sabu n mohammed Hassan faction led by iron sheik would be a good dominant Arab stable
100% , he said its because he Never sold out!
Sabu and RVD made me start watching wrestling again when I saw them in ECW. He's one of the greatest of all time and should be a millionaire today
I'm going to look for that to check out
41:38 This is true. My favorite time period of ECW is late 95 and 96 because the video quality and aesthetic was perfect. The years prior it kind of looked like a lower grade regional territory but eventually it became like the perfect underground wrestling show. No logos all over the place, no bright colors or excessive lights. It was the best.
Amazing shoot as always. Great stuff Sabu, such a legend doesn't get the appreciation he truly deserves.
Totally agree
You can tell Hannibal truly cares about his shoot interviews. He does a good amount of reasearch on the stars beforehand. And granted that should be the norm but it isn't necessarily. Good job, man
For someone who was in a lot of hardcore matches he has a great memory, true legend.
Sabu looks like he's about to lose it at any second
I wanna smoke meth with Sabu!
Hahha I know some people like that. They have a heart of gold but you know one thing will just set them off.
he is holding back tears half the time. especially when he talks about the wwe tryouts an shit
Sabu n rvd had a lot of fun parties in the ecw days getting drunk n high on crack/coke, weed, meth n pills. Also had orgies with bunch of women....good times, im sure rvd n sabu tag teamed a bunch of girls
Homicidal...genocidal....
The real deal. Answers questions in short convincing responses and doesn't drone on and on. He answered about 200 questions. Great talent. Just bought his book. Thanks Hannibal.
Sabu will live to be 108yrs old
I really enjoyed this interview. I purposely didn't watch the clips weeks prior because I wanted to watch it entirely once it was available. Sabu seems very honest and extremely knowledgeable not to mention very funny. Thank you Hannibal, you always do an excellent job and ask all the right questions.
As a teenager I remember seeing ads for VHS compilations of Sabu matches in Pro Wrestling Illustrated ☝️📼 *legend*
Called Benoit a sissy for going to hospital to check on him , haha
Love this interview. Sabu is an amazing hardcore legend of all time.
I hate what wrestling has become. I’ve not watched religiously like when I was a kid for 20 years. I love watching the guys I grew up watching talk about the business though. Great vid Hannibal TV.
Man I love Sabu, he’s always been one of my all time favorites well within my top 5 Wrestlers 👊
*Great interview!!---Sabu for the WWE H.O.F!!*
Sabu is one of my favorite wrestler's. Thanks for the interview hannibal . Very entertaining.😎
Perhaps the greatest shoot interview of all time IMO. the part about Bruiser Brody is pure gold, tremendous new insight on that terrible murder.
Sabu and RVD are hands down my favorite wrestlers of all time. I didn’t get to watch them in their hayday but I’ve gone back and watched as much as I can. The fact Sabu will most likely never get into any hall of fame is criminal.
Thank you for this! Excellent job💯
Sabu vs Muhammad Hassan in ECW 2006 would have been awesome to see
Great interview, very informative. I really enjoyed it, thank you, never knew Sabu could talk!!!
He's a silent one, it adds to his mystique
Thank you, Hannibal! This was an awesome interview
I remember my cousin telling me in 1995: "You have to see this guy Sabu. He's fucking crazy." I don't know why I took so long to heed his advice. When I finally say him, I was a fan for life. Sabu was revolutionary.
I used to tape trade back in the day and always was amazed by sabu.
One of my alltime favorite wrestlers. A true legend who always gave the fans their moneys worth.
Miss Sabu been a minute since I saw him in Downingtown farmers market was very nice.
sabu is my hero I love this man when i met him I gave him all the respect I could bought his book showed his wife respect and I honestly have never cried when meeting someone but this man has had that much of an impact on my life to talk to him give him the credit 4 my entire professional wrestling career and shake his hand I cried he is an inspiration to so many different ppl everyone loves sabu he is above all and a real guy he never acts like he's better than anyone full of love just like rvd and icp thank devon they are right ur the best at this shoot interview thing on yt I appreciate u both so much 🤝🤝👏🤞
Sabu was always my favorite hardcore legend. I always assumed he was a chill dude irl, because he wasn't really a promo guy, but he loved wrestling and his matches were always worth a thousand promos.
So funny self deprecating and such a great attitude for a man that gave everything to a business that he loved and that gave very little back in return. A Legend is an understatement
So Heyman being a little bitch kept him from signing what would have been the only big-money contract he ever had a chance at that's nice of him
Never had the chance to get into ECW so i did not know much about sabu other then he looked cool. After this shoot i can say i know i missed out because this guy os awesome
Living legend. Great interview and great video!
*points to the sky*
Thank You for this I enjoyed it.
Best Sabu interview and I enjoyed the match at the end. He still has it!
Sabu is pretty cool. looking forward to watching this shoot interview.
Prolly the best shoot interview
Great interview! Great match!
Hannibal with the best questions and genuine interest👍🏻
They say dont meet your heros but it's not always the case especially with a solid down to earth amazing worker like Sabu! Much respect to him and the people who set up this shoot, I had no idea about his book so catching this was awesome!
Great interview enjoyed the match at the end
Awesome interview great stuff Hannibal
That man Sabu with the Cart lmfao
Sabu is a tough interview. You did a good job.
I have known about Sabu , never saw him work but i will now. What a cool guy
Sabu and ECW were the old days days! He is amazing!
sorry to keep commenting . but i cant say enough how much i love sabu !!!!
He's a legend and genuinely nice regular dude
I always luv listening to this guys shoots..A guy that would be cool to hang out with.😎 SABU!!!!..
Can’t believe this guy never made a million dollars sabu was awesome just had terrible business sense and was to trusting unfortunately his Hannibal gimmick was cool!
Great interview as always. Just curious, of all the “older” wrestlers you’ve interviewed, who are the top 3 guys who look like they are in good enough shape to still go?
Haku and Barbarian
I laughed TWICE through this interview, 2 hour block. Then again, last time I laughed...was 2 years ago...
exellent shoot hannbal,love sabu"s t shirt .
I always enjoyed and appreciated Sabu's work. I used to have the Terry Funk barbed wire match on a VHS tape. Glad to see he's not only doing fine but he's cool as shit.
He looks and sounds so much better when compared to his other shoots. U can see him genuinely smile and laugh where in other interviews u can tell he doesn't give a shit about what he's talking about and is just there for a pay day
Love the T-Shirt of Supergirl busting out of her clothes, lol.
It was his gf Mellissa Coates before she passed away
GO SABU!!RESPECT FOR THE TRUE HC LEGEND!!
AND PROPS FOR THE AMAZING HANNIBAL(imo he's the cazador the sangre)
From the mitten! He doesn’t get the credit he should. Living legend
LEGEND
Sabu a real legend !!!!
I haven't watched wrestling for years and I'm not familiar with Sabu but he's an absolutely cool and interesting guy. I got a little buzz just listening to him.
Super Glue was also used in the military early on.
THIS GUY IS HYSTERICA:L:!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great Ace impression
I just bought the kindle version!
Funny around an hour 3 minutes into it Sabu is asked about Phil Baroni the NYBA. I knew him from Little League all thru HS but had no idea they ever crossed paths. When he was on Tough Man he talks to LIsa Guerrero its pretty funny. Though he is trained in Wresting, MMA, Boxing, Thai, so it would have went badly for Terry Brunk. That was a really good interview Sabu was always my favorite Wrestling especially in the FMW/ECW era. I don't think its the same year though otherwise have same Birthday as Mike Awesome a real legend best wrestler I think his size ever. Never knew about the Bruiser Brody thing or many other topics touched on so nice job on the research too.
Sabu with the THC cart!!!! Hell ya
@1.16.00 i love this guy
Hannibal surporisingly sharp interviewer imporessed
Sabu 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'd put the time an effort, if Sabu would train ME !!!!! My run would be short, but I'll Risk it All
This dude is a national treasure.
Yeah, we need Sabu in AEW. They dont even have to put the spotlight on him, the fans will take of the rest, ESPECIALLY in the east coast.
God I miss ECW and Sabu in particular
SABU RULED, ECW 1995// 96// 97// ENJOYED SABU, HIS AGILITY// AND HIS TAGGING WITH RVD // AND THE ANGLE WHERE SABU WENT TO SHAKE RVD'S HAND AND RVD WOULD NOT SHAKE IT. THEY FEUDED AND HAD GREAT MATCHES \~/
Sabu is the greatest of ecw
☄Sabu is a man's Man.🍿😎
Hit that cart like u trying to actually get a buzz. Mad respect for Sabu
Fuckkng sick shoot
Sabu's take on Orange Cassidy and Joey Ryan at about 1:17 is pretty good
Born to be Wired...GRUESOME
His body has taken a toll, it would be cool to see him Wrestle still though.
This guy is the VladTV of wrestling shoots .......I love it though
Nice interview, very sad that Super Genie Melissa Coates passed away, must've been tough for him.
How the fuck did I miss this?
He vampiro icp are legend
Those chops.
My all time greatest wrestler
Sabu was awesome!!!!! The kids today have no idea how truly Insane & bloodthirsty The Sheik was.... The WWE & AEW have nothing like The Sheik!!!! When Sabu first met Vince he didn't know who The Sheik was??????? Are you f--king kidding me Vince??????
The way he talks reminds me of Raven and Meltzer, rushes through his answers, thoughts kinda scattered
🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Real legend in kaybee
Who coined the phrase, "the shits, 41:51" in the wrestling world vocabulary? I always thought it was Mean Gene Okerlund for some reason, but anyone thinks they might know the start of it's origin, I would love to hear about it. Rolls off the tongue perfectly with all the poignancy of how it sounds , and barely anyone says it nowadays still outside the wrestling universe.
Listen when he said 15 he ain't lyin that's the most i ever got paid 4 a match but I never even asked 4 money i was in it 4 the experience to learn and have as many matches I could
Sabu The Elephant Boy... The Sheik must have been a John Prine fan!
I thought he explained it came from the actor Sabu. Which I always wondered because when I was a kid I used to like the 1940s version of The Theif of Bagdad which Sabu The Elephan Boy was in and wondered if the name came from him. Turns out it did.
If Sabu could break out of his box and talk - he could still be bigger than Sabu has ever been? His mind is at the highest levels in this theatre., WWE should have him train a pool of guys and just watch the magic.
"Yazuka..." Jesus this guy doesn't care about his fingers. Hail Sabu!
14:02 caught me off guard cause I thought the EXACT SAME THING.... Well at least I heard it from his own mouth
Lol I just realized I’m vaping while watching this and sabu vaping too.. I wonder if THC is inside his vape too 🤔
Sabu is an absolute legend. The one time I saw him in person he started stabbing Masato Tanaka in the head with a fork. That made my night.
I used to think he sounded like that cuz he was missing teeth, but he said his face was partially paralyzed from being shot early in his life, so is that why he tends to slur his words a little?
Yes, that and he's an alcoholic crackhead.
@@leeschofield488 he does drugs but hes not a crackhead.. Or an alcoholic
HOW CAN SULLIVAN PAY A LEGEND LIKE SABU $500. A MATCH// THAT SHIT IS CRAZY// SABU TRULY LOVES HIS CRAFT// HE SAID I WOULD WORK EVEN IF THEY PAYED ME ANOTHER TIME// HE LOVED TO WORK// SABU VS. LOW KI WOULD BE A GREAT MATCH// THEY MAY HAVE HAD A MATCH// NOT SURE// BUT THAT WOULD BE SO COOL// THEY ARE BOTH AMAZING \~/
Hannibal, can you ask Sabu more questions about the Brody murder and about the murderer Jose Invader Gonzalez?
New Jack didnt show up at one night stand apparently he was still mad at paul Heyman for not paying him the last time he work for him. But I still wish new Jack did show up just imagine if he did that crowd would have gone crazy for him
He wouldn't have been able to get inside anyway. Vince wouldn't have allowed it
