WWE Table for 3 Season 3 Episode 7 Talking Shop
- July 24, 2017
Three WWE legends sit down at a table to talk shop in season three, episode seven of WWE Table for 3. The episode is aptly named "Talking Shop," and features former WWE stars and friends Rob Van Dam, Sabu, and Taz.
The trio have a lot to discuss, as they all have a history in the business that spans decades. They begin by reminiscing about their time together on the independent circuit, before eventually moving on to their experiences in the big leagues.
One of the most intriguing topics they delve into is their respective paths to WWE. Rob Van Dam talks about the unique way in which he was scouted by WWE - he was initially hired to train WWF wrestlers how to do martial arts, before eventually being given a chance to show off his own in-ring skills. Taz, on the other hand, was scouted by WWE while still wrestling in ECW, and had a contentious relationship with the company for many years before finally being signed.
Sabu, meanwhile, has a much more colorful story to tell. He talks about his initial reservations about joining WWE, and how he was eventually convinced to sign on after being promised a top spot on the card. The conversation turns to Sabu's eccentric in-ring style, and how he was able to translate that into mainstream success.
Throughout the episode, the three wrestlers reflect on the many challenges they faced during their careers. Van Dam discusses the difficulties of being an "alternative" wrestler in mainstream promotions, and how he had to work extra hard to prove his worth. Sabu talks about the toll that years of hardcore wrestling took on his body, and how he managed to keep going despite the pain.
Perhaps most interestingly, the trio also discuss the differences between today's WWE and the company they all worked for in the past. They talk about the rise of social media, and how it's changed the industry for better or worse. They also discuss the new generation of wrestlers and how they compare to the wrestlers of their era.
Overall, "Talking Shop" is an insightful and entertaining episode of WWE Table for 3. Fans of wrestling history will love hearing these three legends swap stories and discuss their experiences in the industry. And even casual fans will find something to enjoy, as the trio's easy banter and amusing anecdotes make for an engaging watch.
