Luke James Uggles Eatwell (born 24 July 1987), known by his ring name Zack Sabre Jr. (Japanese: ザック・セイバーJr., Hepburn: Zakku Seibā Junia) and its abbreviated form ZSJ, is an English professional wrestler. He is currently signed to New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), where he is the leader of the group The Mighty Don't Kneel and the current and inaugural NJPW World Television Champion. He also makes sporadic appearances for All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and its sister promotion Ring of Honor (ROH).
Sabre is a former NWA United Kingdom Junior Heavyweight Championship winner and a product of the NWA UK Hammerlock training school. He started training with NWA UK Hammerlock at the age of 14, under the guidance of Jon Ryan and Andre "Sledgehammer" Baker. He later trained in the Pro Wrestling Noah (NOAH) Dojo under Yoshinari Ogawa and Naomichi Marufuji as a member of their roster from 2011[2] until November 2015.[3] From 2017, Sabre Jr. was a member of the Suzuki-gun stable until its disbandment in 2022. He joined Suzuki-gun in 2016, after defeating Katsuyori Shibata in his NJPW debut match for the RevPro British Heavyweight Championship. Outside NJPW, Sabre performs for American promotion Ring of Honor (ROH) and British promotion Revolution Pro Wrestling (RPW) as part of NJPW's partnerships with the two promotions. He has also notably wrestled for Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (PWG), Progress Wrestling, and the World Wrestling Network (WWNLive) and their brands.
Though primarily known for his solo performances, Sabre is also a tag team wrestler. In his early career, he made a name for himself as part of the Leaders of the New School with Marty Scurll, holding the IPW:UK Tag Team Championships twice. He would later win the same title (now called RPW Undisputed British Tag Team Champions) alongside Suzuki-gun stablemate Minoru Suzuki. In Pro Wrestling Noah, he was a two-time GHC Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champion with Yoshinari Ogawa and, in Westside Xtreme Wrestling, a wXw World Tag Team Champion with Walter. Sabre had also formed a tag team with other Suzuki-gun stablemate Taichi (the "Dangerous Tekkers"), who were three time IWGP Tag Team Champions; following the Suzuki-gun disbandment, the team disbanded along with it.
Sabre's offensive style includes a wide array of intricately complex technical wrestling holds and pinning combinations, harsh strikes (stemming from his love of puroresu), explosive athleticism and dazzling acrobatics. The readers of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter voted Sabre the Best Technical Wrestler of the year for seven consecutive years (2014–2020) and was voted Best Technical Wrestler of the Decade (2010s).
