Sabu Was Unhappy With Table Spot At AEW Double Or Nothing, Wanted To Do A Leg Drop
Sabu reflects on table spot at AEW Double or Nothing.
Sabu got involved in the action at AEW Double or Nothing, performing a dive off the top rope and onto Matt Menard and Angelo Parker, who were lying on a table on the outside.
Speaking to Title Match Network, Sabu explained why he was unhappy with the spot.
“To tell you the truth, I was unhappy with it because it wasn’t the spot I wanted to do. I wanted the guys to be head-to-head, feet out laying across the table, but they were laying on top of each other. I wanted to do a leg drop to both of them through the table. When I got up there, they’re laying on top of each other. I said, ‘Fuck.’ If I do a leg drop, I’ll probably flip over on them and flip off. So, I just did a splash. It got over, but I wasn’t happy with it. My manger, lawyer, agent, Josh, just said, ‘Do a splash’ before I went out there. I said, ‘No, a splash is too easy,’ and I ended up doing a splash [laughs]. I was like, ‘I have to do something better than that, but they were set up wrong,” he said.
Sabu served as a special enforcer for the bout between Adam Cole and Chris Jericho at AEW Double or Nothing 2023.
