Sabu’s Retirement Match Set for GCW Spring Break 9

Sabu is stepping back into the ring one last time, and Joey Janela is making sure it happens on the wildest stage possible.

At The People vs. GCW, Janela scored a hard-fought victory over Masato Tanaka, but the real shock came after the match when the lights went out. A video package played, paying tribute to Sabu, and when the lights flickered back on, the hardcore legend was standing in the ring.

Janela wasted no time making things official, declaring that he would face Sabu at Spring Break 9 on April 18th—but there was one major catch. This isn’t just another match. Janela made it clear that this will be Sabu’s retirement bout, marking the end of a legendary career that defined hardcore wrestling.

Sabu hasn’t wrestled since 2021 due to health issues, but his legacy speaks for itself. A two-time ECW World Heavyweight Champion, former ECW World Tag Team Champion, and World Television Champion, Sabu helped shape the hardcore wrestling scene that promotions like GCW thrive on today. His last major wrestling appearance came at AEW Double or Nothing 2023, but now, he’s getting ready for one final showdown.

Sabu’s final match isn’t just another wrestling bout—it’s the end of an era. Whether he goes out in a blaze of glory or total destruction, one thing is certain: this will be a can’t-miss moment for hardcore wrestling fans. Janela promised chaos, and if Sabu’s history is anything to go by, he’s about to deliver one last dose of extreme.

Janela vs. Sabu is officially set, but will this be the sendoff Sabu deserves? Or will it be absolute chaos from start to finish? Let us know what you think in the comments!
