Hardcore wrestling icon Sabu has opened up about his time working for WWE's relaunched version of ECW.

Speaking about his experience during a recent appearance at the For the Love of Wrestling convention, Sabu said:

"I didn't have no favourite memories, it was the worst ever. But, I went into it thinking positive, but after seeing it, there was no positive. Vince [McMahon] and everybody in the office was negative on ECW. They didn't want it to do good, they just wanted to bury it, and that's frustrating, because it was something that I put my life into, and then they wanted to stomp it out. Then, they couldn't stomp it out, and they were making money on it with the WWE Network. But anyways, it sucked".

The former ECW World Heavyweight Champion did concede that he enjoyed working with John Cena in the early days of the relaunch, noting that Cena was "gracious "and "professional" during their matches together.

Sabu is set to wrestle his retirement match against Joey Janela at Joey Janela's Spring Break 9 on April 8.
