Posted May 2May 2 comment_6029669 Sabu vs Alex Wright - WCW Nitro 9/11/95 I have seen this match before, but Sabu in WCW always surprises me. They packed a shit ton in 4 minutes. These Nitro matches are the precursor to 21st Century wrestling except people go way too long now. Sabu is springing off ropes and jumping off chairs. Not to be outdone, Wright hits a wicked bodyslam on Sabu on the floor and a great missile dropkick and a big splash over the top to floor. He even gets a great German Suplex. Wright looked just as good as Sabu here. Sabu just had the cooler look. I was a big Alex Wright fan when I was a kid. Loved the dance. Still bust it out from time to time. Sabu hits a victory roll for the top for the win. After the match he keeps beating up Wright and dives off the top through Wright and a table. It was awkward and weird because it was 1995. The ref reversed his decision awarding the match to Wright via DQ to boos. It keeping with the directive, keep it short, sweet and action-packed. Both guys looked great. Sabu looked and felt wicked unique and Wright was a great white meat babyface.
