Brunk cleared rumors that the scars were self-induced in a shoot interview with RF Video, confirming that they were a result of numerous hardcore matches he was involved in, including participating in over two dozen no-rope barbed wire death matches. In May 1992, Sabu teamed with his uncle, the Sheik, in a “Ring of Fire Deathmatch” against Atsushi Onita and Tarzan Goto. The match was set in a ring where the ropes were replaced with barbed wire with sheets soaked in gas wrapped around it. As the match started, the ring crew lit the sheets on fire using torches. They were in the ring for about a minute before all men got out of the ring due to the intense heat. The match ended with no winner. Sabu said in an interview that the ring burned for 19 hours.

This standoff culminated in a grudge match at ECW’s first pay-per-view, Barely Legal, which Taz won. Following the match, Taz’s manager Bill Alfonso turned on him and sided with Sabu and Rob Van Dam, who then formed a tag team.
