Superstar Sleeze Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 Sabu vs Mikey Whipwreck - ECW Allentown 6/18/96 Lets get this out of the way, this is a psychology nightmare. The progression and transitions suck. However, this match is still fun because Sabu is just amazing to watch. He has such a great aura to him and his spots are wild. He is so good at selling general pain. He has the best punch that no one ever talks about. His right hand is great. I have not seen too much of Mikey but he's pretty good especially as far as ECW talent goes. Sabu is in the midst of his first feud with RVD where his neck got injured. So he has a neck brace on but that doesnt slow him down one bit. Each man dives into the audience. Sabu takes a tornado DDT on his injured neck but he's fine! What a trooper! The thing with Sabu you actually do believe him not selling it just because he is a freak. Whipwreck puts him through a table and hits another move off the top. Sabu's punch is a thing of beauty. Sabu hits a pop up powerbomb 20 years before Owens. The Sabu legdropping Whipwreck head into a chair was gnarly and he dented the chair. Sabu Springboard DDTs him through a table because he is Sabu. Great climax. Whipwreck did some stuff but this is a Sabu match through and through, so it has a lot of pitfalls of weird progressions and some Feng Shui wrestling, but the spots are great, his right hand is strong and he is just so cool. *** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
