WWE Hall of Famer dismisses interest in induction, questions legitimacy

Sabu expressed skepticism about the WWE Hall of Fame during an appearance on Donut Shop Chronicles. The former ECW World Heavyweight Champion addressed fan speculation about his potential induction into the prestigious institution.

The ECW legend reflected on his career achievements before sharing his perspective about the Hall of Fame:

It will probably never happen. I do not consider myself eligible for the WWE Hall of Fame, and I honestly have no interest in being a part of it, as I do not feel that my time with the company was sufficient to deserve such an honor.

When discussing fan support for his induction, Sabu pointed to perceived inconsistencies in the selection process:

I appreciate the love. Rob Van Dam deserves to be in the Hall of Fame, but Drew Carey? Does Drew Carey really deserve to be in the WWE Hall of Fame? If he’s there, that makes the whole thing a sham.

Sabu’s career peaked in ECW from 1991 to 2000, where he captured the ECW World Heavyweight Championship twice. His tag team success included three ECW World Tag Team Championship reigns – two with Rob Van Dam and one alongside The Tasmaniac.

Kevin Nash reflects on John Cena’s wrestling legacy

During a recent episode of Kliq This podcast, Kevin Nash offered insight into John Cena’s impact on professional wrestling.

The WWE Hall of Famer shared his personal experiences working with the 16-time World Champion:
