Sabu, the legendary ECW star, doesn’t think he’s a strong contender for induction into the WWE Hall of Fame and, in fact, isn’t particularly interested in being inducted at all. During a recent interview on Donut Shop Chronicles, Sabu opened up about his thoughts on the prestigious honor. Despite his immense influence on professional wrestling, particularly in the hardcore and extreme styles that defined ECW, he expressed doubts about his eligibility and candidacy for the Hall of Fame. The veteran wrestler emphasized that while he appreciates the recognition, he doesn’t feel the need to be a part of it.
Sabu’s candid remarks sparked further discussion about his unique legacy in the industry, as he remains one of the most respected and influential figures in wrestling history, even if he’s not actively pursuing accolades like Hall of Fame induction. Below are some key highlights from the interview, as reported by Fightful:
Sabu on the possibility of a WWE Hall of Fame induction:
“I don’t know. Probably never, really. I’m not eligible for the WWE Hall of Fame, not that I want to be anyway, because I didn’t have a Hall of Fame career while I was there. Another Hall of Fame, who knows.”
Sabu on the notion that wrestling fans want him in the Hall of Fame:
“I appreciate that. Rob Van Dam is Hall of Fame material too, but is Drew Carey? Is Drew Carey Hall of Fame material? He goes in it, that means it’s going to be bulls**t. If he’s in it, it’s bulls**t.”
