It's a broken neck. For people who want to argue that he was in the ring a few weeks later I say this: IT'S SABU! When has he ever done something logical?
This was an awesome end, because Tazz couldn't care about his own FTW belt and if to screw with both Douglas and Sabu, he'd break Sabu and let him pin him...why? because it was never about the FTW belt it was about the World Title.
@mckendo83 nO, hE REALLY DID BREAK HIS NECK. HE ACTUALLY SAID THIS HIMSELF. He was originally gonna win the belt anyway, but they had to rush the ending....
@Constantine2X Your post it's so stupid . This is not cauz i missed the real ECW Era then i've seen nothing ! I've all rare tapes of ECW almost all PPV & Tv Show ! Things then you may be never seen before .
@ChickenWrapLabel You miss read my post, You never mentioned you went back and watched previous years ECW, so for all I knew you started watching wrestling in 2001 and that's all you saw from then on, calm it down a bit.
God i miss the good old days when ecw was ecw an not this factory mass produced shit you see on tv now. I'm so glad i was part of ecw day in the day as we set the f'n tone. I think this match as the match leading up to Shane Douglas where taz pull sabu on top of him to get the shot at the title at guilty as charged 1990 then face sabu again at living dangerously 1999 an brakes sabu jaw with that same tazplex through a table but sabu carrys on the match an i right guys
actually taz didnt have the ecw title at this point. the franchise was still the champ at this point this was just a way for taz to finally get a shot at the title. while this was a way for douglas to get taz to join his new triple threat but taz wanted something much more that shane kept ducking and that was to be the ecw champ.
really? i swear that taz held the FTW title until he won the ECW title, then he let sabu win the FTW title. Apart from sabu's reign after that taz was the only one to hold the FTW title.
your dumb as fuck. Chris benoit choked his son out and his wife and then hung himself. Not saying that that's the right thing to do but don't dis chris benoit. He was one of the few wrestlers that didn't suck in WWE/WWF. And now he's dead.
My life is far from boring. Stop trying to tell me how it is... you don't know me, go find a hobby rather than calling everyone "bitch" or "fag" on YouTube... you call my life boring but you must pretty damn bored to make cheap shots at people over the internet.
I went to a match live with Taz v. Kronus in Revere, MA. Taz was fucking amazing, You're right. No one suplexes like Taz, That dragon suplex was great too.
HELL yea they did..he was more of an anti hero he wasnt a heel and he wasnt a face either he just came to fuck people up basically like Taz!! Sabu did some crazy shit in tha real "ECW" I dont kno why they let Cena beat him in like under 5 minutes in an "eXtreme rules" match
Not a wrestling just a title Taz made that was his "ECW" world title because he wasn't ECW champ and was pissed off at Shane Douglas because he was champ. So Taz called it the FTW,Brooklyn World, or the true ECW world title.
Damn!!! All these injuries and Sabu is still going strong today!!! Broken neck--twice, broken jaw--twice, broken ribs, torn bicep, torn knee, even getting shot in the face!!! Now that's a genuine badass!!!
Unrelated note--this is the first time I've ever seen RVD with his hair down!!
yo listen up junior i'll say what the police said there is no evidence to say he killed anyone and on top of that people don't give a fuck about your opinion of him its irritating to be honest you see people remember his legacy not what he was supposed to have done so keep your vulgar trap shut because its people like you who give wrestling fans a bad name
insane suplex man.....classic ECW wrestling, Tazz is a suplex god and Sabu would let another wrestler to kill him if that helped the company...they both rule!!!SABU IS SICK!!!!!!
dang sabu doesnt even think before he does stuff.he just keeps on going..to bad stephanie and vince mcmahon killed off ECW and fired SABU...so so sad that someone as cool as sabu is gone..):
fuck how many times has Sabu broken his neck...thats just ridiculous
