This is a gut punch. I was pushing this agenda again a few weeks ago after Sabu had his final match.
RIP Sabu. One of a kind, absolute legend, and a true game changer for professional wrestling. https://t.co/wVgZ4ao42k

Heart broken hearing the news of Sabu passing away. He always treated me great and we shared some special moments in the ring. He made me laugh so many times over the last 20 years. Rest in Peace and God Speed Sabu.

RIP Sabu. Godspeed my friend. I’ll have a lot more to share, but right now I’m just very sad and heartbroken to hear this news about my friend, and about a man who literally changed the presentation of professional wrestling.

I am truly saddened to learn of the passing of Terry Brunk, who many of us knew and admired as Sabu. His contributions to the world of professional wrestling were nothing short of legendary. I always looked forward to seeing him at our wrestling conventions, where he was not only… pic.twitter.com/WyfEfHc2P5

There is so much “SABU” IN the “CROWBAR” character. We never hung out, but the love, respect and kinship we had was special. He MADE ME when he could have squashed me. His style inspired me like countless others, it was always great and special to see thus guy. This one hits… pic.twitter.com/bmWgNHE6Uk

I wrestled Sabu in 2019 a few months after he had a hip replacement. He springboard tornado ddt’d me out of my boots.
It was wild!
Then he wanted to stab me with a spike for a bit but we figured it out.
RIP Sabu

Just heard the news about Sabu. My heart is heavy. Sabu was the first “independent wrestler” I discovered through reading PWI Magazines as a kid. Was completely enamored with what I was looking at on a monthly basis.
Last year he paid us a visit while we were in Vegas and we… pic.twitter.com/dmFi2iTG2d

A brotherhood and bond that very few in our business will ever understand.
And tomorrow on @BustedOpenRadio we will pay respect to one of our own.
RIP Sabu and THANK YOU for being the pioneer and originator of getting the tables!! pic.twitter.com/uV5EFkvip2

RIP Sabu
Sabu was a trailblazing groundbreaker who played a major role in the expansion of what a pro wrestling match could be. The fact that tables are commonly utilized in pro wrestling is because of Terry Brunk & how he made an inanimate object like a table a must see… pic.twitter.com/5WbvnMTs8j

I’m sipping a beer and thinking about Sabu. Hack Myers (RIP) introduced us when I was just starting. Hack vouched for me. On that, Sabu gave me a pass & the chance to earn his trust. We became friends. He looked out for me & vouched for me in front of other vets. Continued

Sabu was always good to ME! When I was “Antonio Banks” on the indies, he always had time for me. Always put me over to the promoters whenever we were booked on shows together. He literally gave his body to the biz.
He lives on forever as a legend in our industry.— MVP (@The305MVP) May 11, 2025
I’m glad I saw him in Vegas after his match in his dressing room. He was a mess. He stood and gave me a safe hug, not wanting to bleed on my suit. I asked him if he was OK. He said he was. We agreed to burn one later. I said, “I love you man.” Sabu said “Love you too brother.”

Fightful sends its condolences to the family, friends, and fans of Sabu.
