Kip Sabian: A Brief Biography

Sabian was trained by the Knight family, which includes Saraya Knight and Ricky Knight, and even earned a cameo in their upcoming feature film Fighting With My Family. He has also worked under Jimmy Ocean, Jason Cross, Karl Kramer, and Frank “Chic” Cullen. Like most Knight family graduates Sabian worked mostly for World Association Of Wrestling and from 2010 to 2016 never managed to break outside of his home promotion. Apart from the WAW, he tried his hand at RCWA, FSW, ASW, DOA, LDN, TNT, Superstar Promotions, and ECTA (France). He did have success in WAW though as he was a three-time WAW World Tag Team champion, a two-time Open Light Weight Heavyweight champion and a former WAW U23 champion.
