Legendary Wrestler Sabu Dies at 60, Weeks After Final Match
The wrestling world mourns the loss of Terrence Brunk, known as Sabu, a legendary ECW champion and hardcore wrestling icon who passed away at age 60. Little is known about the cause of death, but it occurred less than two weeks after his final match at WrestleMania 41 Weekend, where he defeated Joey Janela in Las Vegas. Sabu, nephew of Detroit wrestling legend The Sheik, began his career in 1985 in the Midwest territories and gained fame through his high-risk, hardcore style. He was a central figure in ECW during the 1990s, known for feuds with Rob Van Dam and Taz, and his influence persists in professional wrestling. Sabu also had brief stints in WWE, WCW, and TNA, and participated in WWE's ECW brand in 2006, facing John Cena. His last public appearance was at a reunion convention in Philadelphia. Fellow wrestlers and fans have paid tribute, with WWE and ECW legends remembering his fearless performances and significant impact on the sport.
