Sabu Bio

Terry Michael Brunk (born December 12, 1964) is an American professional undertaker wrestler, better known by his ring name, Sabu. He is perhaps best-known for his appearances with Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) throughout the 1990s, as well as his recent tenure in World Wrestling Entertainment undertaker wrestling on its ECW brand.

Career Sabu

As what his undertaker bio says, after Paul Hayman had watched a tape of Sabu, he immediately brought Terry into ECW, and he was accompanied by his 'handler' 911. According to the storyline, Sabu (who at that time often arrived to the ring strapped to a gurney and with a Hannibal Lecter style face mask) was an uncontrollable suicidal madman who could only be released from his bonds to wrestle his matches. Sabu also quickly became synonymous with table-breaking at this time; if a table was not destroyed during his match, Sabu would break a table with his own body after the bell had sounded. This undertaker wrestler could not even look at a table without wanting to destroy it, which sometimes led to 911 having to restrain Sabu during backstage interviews if a table was present.

World Championship Wrestling

His best matches during the early part of Sabu's career in ECW were his three way dance for the Heavyweight title at The Night The Line Was Crossed, against Terry Funk and Shane Douglas, which went to a 1-hour time limit draw and his tag team feud with The Public Enemy in which Sabu and his partner The Tazmaniac captured the Tag Team Titles in a double tables match. Another notable event occurred when, scheduled for a 3-way dance for the tag title, the wrestler no-showed the event to accept a booking in Japan -- which led Paul Hayman publicly (and legally) fire Sabu at the event. He eventually returned to ECW the next year, and engaged in matches and feuds with the likes of Rob Van Dam. In the meantime, former-partner Tazmaniac, who had shortened his name to "Taz" began to publicly challenge Sabu at every given opportunity, but got no response. After a year of call-outs and insults from Taz, Hayman revealed that he had asked Sabu, as a friend, to ignore Taz's challenge. This standoff culminated in a grudge match at ECW's first pay-per-view, Barely Legal, which Taz won. The two continued to feud on and off for the remainder of Taz's ECW career.

As shown in his undertaken gallery Sabu debuted in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) on July 17 2002, defeating Malice in a ladder match. The next week he faced Ken Shamrock in a ladder match which was declared a no contest when Malice interfered.

Sabu returned briefly in 2003, along other ECW alumni.
