This is a prime time with Sean Mooney production.

Known around the world is the homicidal, suicidal, suicidal, death-defying maniac, Sabu.

Sabu, welcome to prime time. How are you?

Thank you very much. I'm pretty good.

Hey, where did that nickname come from? Where the homicidal, suicidal, where did that all come from?

Paul Haynard came up with that.

That's, yeah, I don't like using it so much because it sounds like I'm bragging or something.

I don't mind if someone else says it, but I don't say it myself.

But, yeah, Paul Hedden came up with that.

Well, I tell you, you know, when you would look at your performances, though,

they were just so much different than anything else anybody was doing at the time to that extreme.

And, you know, you think about that time, Sabu, that they had, you know, there were brawlers out there.

There was hardcore, but nothing like what you would do with it.

But what was the difference back then?

And I know that the original Sheik was one of the forefathers of that,

but what was the difference to you between, you know,

these brawlers that would go out there and, you know,

work pretty stiff and hardcore?

Well, you know, but brothers were guys who weren't technical wrestlers.

They were guys who were kickers and punchers and stiff.

So I just made the brawler athletic, you know, with kicking and punching to another level, you know.

Yeah.
