I didn't think Chris Sabin could get any cooler....but he has!
See I've been playing FFVI a lot and there is a cool character called Sabin in it and I always think "Hail Sabin!" whenever he appears on-screen, but I just found out that Final Fantasy VI is where Chris got the name from!

How big of a gamer is TNA star Chris Sabin? Final Fantasy players only need to look at his name to find out.
"I took the name Sabin from the old Final Fantasy 3 on Super Nintendo," the wrestler told me over the phone when I asked him about the Square title. "It was my favorite game growing up and I just thought that character was cool. I loved his blitzes and always made sure he was in my party."
But Sabin's gaming obsession didn't end on the SNES. He's part of a TNA crew that plays Xbox Live just about every off day. A crew that's made up of Sabin, Christian Cage, Samoa Joe, Jay Lethal, and A.J. Styles.
"I play Gears of War and Halo 2 a lot," says Sabin. "I just got Tony Hawk's Project 8, so I've been playing that a lot lately."
Sabin is anxiously awaiting word on Midway's TNA game, and from what he's seen so far, he's impressed. "If they do it like they said, model it like the old No Mercy games in terms of the controls, I think that's what everyone wants to play."
There's actually a whole interview with Sabin with IGN, but I just found it cool that he based his name on FF's Sabin. That's awesome.
Hail Chris Sabin indeed!
