Sabu – A Homicidal, Suicidal, Genocidal Tribute with Tommy Dreamer & Bully Ray

They talk Paul Heyman & Sabu, Sabu’s aura and legacy, and how the loss of his wife, Melissa Coates, may have played a part in Sabu’s own passing. Plus, Jericho shares the crazy match that Sabu wanted to have with him on the Jericho Cruise!
