Terry Brunk, known as Sabu, a revolutionary icon of professional wrestling, has passed away, leaving the wrestling world in mourning.
Sabu, an innovator of the violent style and an iconic figure in ECW, died after leaving his mark on several generations. His final match took place in Las Vegas, where he defeated Joey Janela, and his farewell to the public took place at the Tri-State Wrestling Alliance’s legendary 2300 Arena.

“WWE is saddened to learn of the passing of Terry Brunk, known to wrestling fans as Sabu. WWE extends its condolences to Sabu’s family, friends and fans,” WWE posted.
“The original ECW whose innovative style helped bring the entire wrestling world to a new extreme. We send our condolences to his loved ones,” Triple H wrote on his X account.
Who was Sabu?
From his grueling training under the tutelage of his uncle “The Sheik,” Terry Brunk burst onto the wrestling scene in the mid-1980s, still in his twenties, and began a career marked by risk and intensity.
Sabu rose to prominence in FMW in 1991, where his scars from extreme fighting sparked rumors that were denied by those close to him.
His big break came when he joined ECW, a violent hardcore wrestling brand that was purchased by WWE, where Sabu made only a few appearances.
Sabu, a legend who set the ring on fire! He faced titans like Rey Mysterio, Big Show and John Cena and left his mark on WWE with his intensity, even if his time there was fleeting. He won global titles, reigned twice as ECW World Champion, and immortalized himself as the king of hardcore, breaking barriers with every suicide dive.
Sabu had a relationship with wrestler Melissa Coates in the 2010s. She passed away in 2021 at the age of 52 due to complications from COVID-19.
