    Something that I had wondered about Sid Justice's WWF run.
    I had read this in The Detroit News when they would have a Friday Wrestling Column by ML Curly (Not real name). Before Sid had the arm injury, During the run to Survivor Series, a tentative plan was that Hogan was going to lose the Title at Survivor Series to Undertaker (Which he did)
    Sid was going to win the Survivor Series Match against the Jake Robert's team. At the end of the show because of the way Undertake would win the title President Tunney would announce that on "This Tuesday in Texas" that "Justice would be served" and have Sid challenge and win the Title from Undertaker.
    Let's say that was the original plan before Sid's injury. We could have went to Royal Rumble with Sid vs. Flair, with Flair winning the Title. Hogan winning the Royal Rumble, setting up the Hogan vs. Flair match. And also having a rematch of Sid vs. Undertaker. What are your thoughts Conrad and Bruce and listeners of the show of that scenario?

    Man Sid at survivor series 96 was over like fucking rover. Shawn Michael's was supposed to be the baby face and sid even used a camera to give jose a heart attack and the fans still cheered sid. They were absolutely mental for him in 96, loved it when he embraced Vlad the superman after his winning of the title too cause he knew who he was.

    Another stupid thing when they were trying to turn Sid Heel w the Hulk angle in early 92 in that SNME Sid & Hulk in the tag match there’s a promo backstage pre match and Hogan as always won’t shut up and you see Sid waiting to talk and as he’s about to finally say something Mean Gene says they’re out of time and Hogan’s already walked off. He looks like he’s gonna go crazy and he should! How the fuck is HE the bad guy here?! But the Rumble shit was horrible, no way can defend that booking, especially if you look how in previous years Rumbles Hogan eliminated not only other babyfaces but mates of his who he was in storyline friends with like Savage & Tugboat.

I've looked all over RUclips for stories on John, but there isn't very many at all. And, I've listened to a lot of your podcast, and I've never really heard you mention him. Love to hear some stories about him and Andre's feud, and the reason he left WWE twice.

    The 1992 Rumble was the best, agree the ending could have been better but in the whole it's fantastic storytelling. Then the face off with Hogan and Sid and there is a close up of Hogan when he hears the crowd reaction and I've always thought it's the realisation that his era is over.

    54:30 Hogan/Flair may have been a better match than Hogan/Justice, but that would've robbed us of the Savage/Flair match that was a better match than any of the above. I agree however that Hogan/Justice was a stinker, and was only saved by the HUGE crowd reaction that Ultimate Warrior got for his return.

    I also was very puzzled by Hogan pulling Sid out. In the context of the Royal Rumble match, Sid did NOTHING wrong in the way he eliminated Hogan. It's every man for himself. If you can dump a guy over who is distracted, it's not your fault he's distracted. And you all may not remember, but live, the crowd clearly took Sid's side on this.

    Sid Eudy, Sycho Sid, is a person who left his mark in the business that is for sure. What surprised me was that even though Bruce said Sid was a pain in the ass, he worked 3 different stints for the WWF. I thought Sid looked out of place too in the million dollar corporation. Sid cut great promos that is for sure. Like Conrad my favorite was the one prior to face Shawn at Royal RUmble 1997. Shawn was such a pain in the ass during 1997. He was so scared to face Bret Hart again at Wrestlemania 13 yet Sid lost the WWF Championship to Shawn and got it back 3 weeks later. He should be in the hall of fame by now.

    I was a "Hulkamaniac" as a kid, Hogan was my hero.
    And even then, watching that Rumble when Sid eliminated him and said "It's every man for himself!" I thought, "He's not wrong."
    Then my hero, Hulk Hogan, basically acted like a bitch and helped pull Sid out. Interesting how this was about the time I started to become disillusioned with wrestling until the start of the nWo in WCW.

His presence was catered more toward the females. Sid. brought the man's man blue collar attitude back to wrestling that people at the time wanted. Steve Austin witness this and was smart enough to capitalize on it.
