Then Sid came out to a huge pop. And then kicked Justin Credible's ass. It was very fun to watch. Even Jeff Jones himself got beat lol Sid is not as bad as everybody clams. He's like Goldberg, just don't put him on a mic then it'll be fine. Tho personally I prefer Sid over Goldberg, mainly because he had alot of matches longer then 5 mins

    Many years ago I knew a woman (sister of my dad’s girlfriend at the time) who drove the limo for a lot of the WWF wrestlers when came to the area (mostly for Brett hart). She had a disabled son (deaf and movement issues, good kid) who was a big wrestling fan. She told me a story how she got to go backstage at a WWF event in Allentown, PA with her son. Sid saw the kid and basically made sure the kid met all the wrestlers. Sid even carried him around to make sure he got everyone’s autograph. Not one wrestler turned him down. She said it seemed like Sid was more excited then her son. When it came to children, especially disabled kids, Sid was as nice and as accommodating as anyone.
    I’ll always remember that story (and I saw all the pictures with the kid and the wrestlers, heel and baby face). The only one he didn’t get a picture with was the undertaker. But the kid was standing there in the hallway and saw the undertaker walking out for a match. The Undertaker was well known for staying in full character when he was in the arena, but when Taker saw the kid, he nodded to him, which coming from the undertaker was a huge sign of respect and a big deal. It really raised my opinion of Sid. Sid was and is a great guy, especially when it came to his younger fans. That incident made me a fan of Sid.

Then Sid said, "hey, go knock on that door, and the guy inside will sign for you too", so I did, and Norman The Lunatic (Bastion Booger) opened the door, looked at me, then Sid and Teddy, and slammed the door on me. Sid shrugged and started laughing, and said, "well, I tried!". Good Rib and a great memory!

      I *really* don't think so. The early/mid 90s was the infamous steroid trials, and Hogan testified against Vince. That's why Hogan disappeared for a while after WM8, and why his short lived return didn't work out. There wasn't much love lost there.
      I mean, I agree McMahon should've given Sid that shot, but his reasons for not doing it certainly weren't because he was too big a fanboy of the guy that was literally working to ruin him and his company.

How dudes didn't get their backs broken with those powerbombs I'll never know but he made them look so convincing I would wince on the victims behalf.

The Ring Announcer announced that Warrior had a flight problem and wouldn't be there tonight. They told us we had until the end of the next match to go to the box office and get a refund. I don't know if anyone actually did go for the refund, i stayed. Owen came out and there was a long pause after the announcer said "and his opponent".

They talked about him being a big guy but they kind of just put them over as you’re bigger than average wrestler. Because he didn’t work like a big guy van.

    I live in Memphis TN and every year there was what was called the Mid South Fair, eventually the fair was moved just outside of Memphis to Southaven Ms. One year I took my son to the Fair and we saw that there was going to be a wrestling show with some local talent but what caught our eye was Sid Vicious was main event. My son is a huge wrestling fan since the age of 1, (this kid eats, sleeps, and breathes wrestling, he's an all state wrestler currently at the age of 16) he was 6 or 7 at the time. Anyway we go to the show and there are probably 25 people sitting around the ring, sure enough Sid and some local guy was the main event, we couldn't believe such a one time HUGE star was at this little show. Well here's the thing about Sid after his match he went around and shook hands, took pictures, signed autographs, and thanked every single person that was attending. It was the thrill of my young son's life to meet such a big time wrestler. Just another story of how nice a guy Sid really is

      He got big pops in Memphis. He had a great run in Memphis in 1994 while in between WCW and WWF. He just showed up as a heel, destroyed Lawler, took the belt and totally dominated the territory like he always should have been booked in WCW or WWF. He turned face at the end when he left of the WWF, but still showed up in Memphis once a month or so as a face. He always got a huge pop and drew much bigger crowds than normal.
