Sabu vs. Rob Zakowski (RVD) USWA 7/6/1991

Match: Samu (Sabu) vs Rob Zakowski (Rob Van Dam)

Date: 7/6/1991

Setting: USWA Promotion (Tennessee, USA)

Description: This is an early match with Sabu wrestling against a young Rob Van Dam. Sabu first started wrestling in 1985. While Vam Dam had his first training & matches around 1989/1990. RVD was of course trained by the Sheik in Michigan, and would become great friends with Sabu.I also included some brief footage of a cage match later that month between Sabu and his then partner, Judge Dredd, vs Jeff Jarret and Robert Fuller.

who knew they would end up being two of the best ever. also sabu was barefoot whats all that about

[jacksiin1000]

This is why wrestling is doomed with no regional terrorties for the youngsters to hone their skills...not to mention that WWE have too much power as the only alternative is TNA and maybe ROH.....Gone are the days of wrestlers telling Vince that unless they sort out their" characters" push they are off to the competition and vice or versa!.....I give the WWE about 3 years especially as Vince is gonna piss most of their money on a ill conceived and poorly thought out "Network"...

a few years later, these two had a classic stretcher match in ECW
