  NoDQ.com > WWE > Sadman Reflects On Controversial ECW Angle
Posted by Steve Carrier on 12/01/2016 at 10:37 AM

Former ECW/WWE superstar The Sandman recently spoke with Jan Murphy for The Whig about various topics and here are the highlights:

On The Crucifixion angle in ECW:

"That whole thing got blown out of proportion by Kurt f--king Angle. It wasn't Kurt's fault because Kurt didn't know wrestling back then. He was a f--king gold medalist. Everything to him was a shoot, you know what I'm saying?. I tell you what, later when Undertaker hung Austin on a thing that was almost exactly like a cross on WWE, I guarantee you (Angle) didn't go into Vince's office and complain that night. I was so mad that night when we got back there," Sandman recalled. "First of all, I don't give a f--k. I like Kurt; I've got a s--tload of respect for him. But back then, I was hot. I told Raven, 'Do not go out there, do not apologize, you're f--king crazy if you do."

On his character:

"Dude, that character is me. I used to sit in the locker room, smoke cigarettes and drink beer and then go out and wrestle. Wrestlers are characters, but my character, everybody's walked into a bar, seen a guy just like me playing a game of pool, wants to play it for money and when he loses, wants to begin a fight, you know what I mean? Everybody knows a Sandman."

On leaving ECW for WCW:

"I was pissed off at Paul E. because he told me I was always going to be his highest paid player and then I found out he paid Sabu like $15,000 and me $14,000 for a pay-per-view or something. So I quit on principle alone. I knew damn sure I was going to end up back in ECW because I knew WCW was a sinking ship. They were hemorrhaging money."
