Sabu: Official Autobiography: Scars, Silence, and Superglue | 
pickWith his recent passing at the age of 60 and the odd story of his retirement barbed wire death match shortly before his death, I decided to finally read this book. It didn‘t disappoint from the stories of his start in support of his uncle in the territories, to building his skills in Japan, to coming back to America to become a hardcore innovator and legend between the major promotions and indies.
JoeMo He did not hold back in the stories or opinions he shared to include some mistakes he believed he made along the way. He even shared his love for his “little friends” which killed his pain and therefore made his matches “better” but also resulted in his addiction issues and may have been a factor in his death. I learned a lot about a guy I knew next to nothing about except for the fact he seemed scary as hell 2w
TieDyeDude I knew of him, but I just watched WWE with my older brother and his friends. I only heard of him by reputation, but this sounds like an interesting read. 1w
JoeMo @TieDyeDude if you enjoy the occasional wrestler bio, this book is definitely worth it! It had some of the oddest and craziest stories about wrestling I‘ve ever read. Towards the end of the book another wrestler tells a story of wrestling a match in which Sabu gets sick in the middle of the match…gross hilarity ensues. There are supposedly tons of typos in the print copy which are reportedly distracting but the audiobook didn‘t seem as bad (edited) 4d
