Sabu Hospitalized and Notes from the ECW Reunion

[Jack Raines]

Things don't sound good for Sabu... I hope he pulls through.

From WrestlingObserver.com:

Sabu was rushed to the hospital this afternoon after being what police called intoxicated at his hotel room before the Extreme Reunion show. Sabu didn't appear at a fan convention before the show and people were worried.

Sabu was scheduled to face Shane Douglas in the main event. The story given was he had an allergic reaction to medication.

The show started 30 minutes late. We don't have other details other than the building was sold out with about 2,400 fans, making it probably the biggest indie show of the year in North America.

Justin Credible was kicked out from backstage after reportedly passing out.

It's 11 p.m. at this writing, fans are chanting "End the show." They have about an hour's worth of scheduled matches left.

Jerry Lynn vs. Devon Storm is stealing the show right now and turned the mood around, with "Thank You Jerry, Thank you Crowbar" chants.

Women in the crowd having been flashing their boobs.

Shane Douglas got in the ring and the natives wre chanting "refund" at him. Not exactly what you'd expect from a nostalgia crowd.

They are now ending the show with Douglas vs. Too Cold Scorpio, so apparently pulled some things from the show due to being late.

Douglas won when Tod Gordon helped him. Fans were throwing things at the ring at the end of the show.

Sounds pretty brutal...But I still would have liked to have been there. II Cold was always one of my favorite workers, and he didn't look half bad in TNA a few years ago.

Not the way you start a new brand, Mr. Douglas... wow... Thanks for the report Jack Raines!

Yikes. This can't be good. I follow the event on Twitter and they made NO mention at all about Sabu's situation or condition. I hope he's okay.

[Irwin R Schyster]

Its sad, he is trying to relive the good ol days of ECW, but between Justin Credible and Sabu, it just doesnt bode well

Let ECW rest in peace

Thanks for the report.

Just give up Shane Douglas, Its sad how the ECW guys are still trying to do these reunion shows, its been done so many times now its not even like beating a dead horse anymore....Its like eating the dead horse, shitting it out and pissing on it.

Just let us have the memories of yester-year and enjoy ECW for what it was.

[A-Rob]

wow, i hope that they don't do anymore ECW Reunion shows for a long, long, long time

Yeah it's really tough to take Douglas seriously when you consider he never misses an opportunity to say Flair has ruined his legacy over the years.

[George C]

Sad news for sure.

I hope Sabu is ok and that these ECW reunion shows STOP.

Note to Shane Douglas, get into therapy ASAP!

[JN]

Ouch.

I guess I'm not the only one who has "allergic reactions" after a night of hard partying. Too bad my boss and girlfriend never buy the excuse.

Justin Credible apparently tweeted this out to his followers the night before the incident....Kind of a douche thing to do, but KHARMA (yes, I spell it that way all the time now) is a bitch.
