Yes. Multi time world champion in both wwe & wcw, main evented wrestlemania twice One of the coolest wrestlers ever, he was over everywhere he went. Hopefully they induct him in 2025
Cool story that RVD told recently as tribute to Sid. He mentioned this squash match and how Sid was very appreciative after the match for helping to make him look good. He gave both RVD and the other guy $20 as a thank you, saying it wasn't much but it'd get them a bit further down the road. RIP to one of the best big men ever in wrestling.
WrestleMania VIII Hogan was not the champion it was Ric Flair vs Randy Savage for the WWF Championship at WrestleMania VIII Hogan vs Sid was just a regular match
I'd like to know why he thought it was a title match. Hogan didn't come down with a belt. The announcers would never say anything to indicate it's a title match. Every decent wrestling fan with any knowledge back then knows who was WWF champion when and where. How do you make a mistake like this?
The most ignored multi-promotion World Champion of all time!! The body of work of the man that rules the world lasted from the peak of the Hulkamania era to the tail end of the Monday Night Wars. Sid's been a draw and main eventer in two of WWF's Wrestlemanias and WCW's final Starrcade. He's the first wrestler that made a world title change against Bret Hart before Wrestlemania 13 on an non-PPV episode of RAW, encouraged the Shock Master to break through a paper-thin wall, first person to eliminate Hogan in a Royal Rumble, had the second longest undefeated streak behind Goldberg in his final run in WCW, ECW's only undefeated wrestler, and for crying out loud he broke he fibula and tibula doing a top rope big boot that killed any drawing power WCW had. It pisses me off how this man contributed so much for WWF and WCW and I was singing high praises about him months before he passed away. Now those same haters of Sid that discredit his body of work are now praising him, similar to how people made fun of Michael Jackson before his death are now saying MJ's the greatest of all time, pretending what they said against them never really happened. I'm glad that I didn't let what WWE's propaganda machine or internet wrestling community says about Sid as truth. I know he's every bit of an unsung hero of American pro wrestling, up there with Big Van Vader, Ravishing Rick Rude, and so many more. RIP Sid! You're one of my favorite giant badass heels of all time and you'll be forever missed!
Sid was never a big draw for WCW. He was on the level of Steiner/Booker but below Flair and above Jarrett. Set to be a top guy moving forward but then he had the injury and WCW ended. In the 90s people thought his matches were boring, there were MANY slow big guys at the time - thats how the injury came about as he was pressured to do something more interesting and memorable 😢 Without the injury, would he have been in TNA? 😮

@@AshRiot81 Sid's promos were less cartoonish and less full off gibberish than Ultimate Warrior's. They were still over the top sometimes, but it was more convincing from Sid. RIP, ruler of the world.
I always like how sid how 2 or 3 different kinda powerbombs. He had a normal but devastating looking one with the way he puts extra force into them on the way down. He had a jackknife one where you get them up and just let go and let gravity do its thing. And then that falling with them one
Yup, it was only in replays on their TV shows that they dubbed over it with fake boos and redone commentary but they left it alone on all home videos (not counting Invasion 92 which had the TV version during a Flair segment). Funny enough, the Anthology DVD/Network version is probably the best presentation since they kept both live PPV & Coliseum Video VHS promos (see why Hogan & Flair had two on that show).
They did that a lot. Jake the snake was getting bigger pops at house shows. They cut their feud short, and never went through with a storyline. They didn't want to make their cash cow look bad.
I’ve said it many times already in other videos, but Sid should’ve won the 92 royal rumble, Hulk Hogan is a man-baby that doesn’t know when to lose and he refused to give Sid the glory, at the end of the day Sid got him back when he kicked out in the botched leg drop.
this is the first time ima tell you i hate birds Sid was a good friend to me. i went to a WWE show as a teen and he was there. he took care of me. he hung out at my house. he was a really cool dude. rest in peace. this should have been a B
Sid was a great talent. His fued with Shawn Michael's in the mid 90's was awesome. He was only in two Wrestlemania's but Main Evented both of them. RIP to the ruler of the world.
Sid and Hogan vs Flair and Undertaker seemed like a WCW vs WWF fever dream when I was a 10 year old kid. It was unthinkable that those 4 guys would share the same ring in early 1991. What a time to be a fan. RIP to the Master and Ruler of the World. RIP Sycho Sid Vicious. One of the greatest bug men to ever lace up a pair of boots.

@@vegetalover9297 I hear you, but he had a different character, move set, attire. And aligned himself with different people. Only when he went back to NXT did he develop into the character we see today
This might sound crazy, but Drew reminds me of a younger Sid. Drew has the size, the intensity, and the crowdwork Sid had. Obviously they’re not the same characters, but Drew has some similarities to Sid.
RIP Sid. There's not many wrestlers who can compel you to watch everything they do onscreen, but he was one of those rare breeds. I wish he came to the WWF faster and maybe it could have been him in the Ultimate Warrior slot.
Back in 1990 I was a “Little Stinger” and I was too scared to watch the PPV match between Sting and Sid because I thought he was going to seriously hurt Sting! That’s how convincing Sid was!
Sid was always super over with the crowd, even as a Heel. Just look at his entrance from the 1996 Survivor Series, he was supposed to be a detestable Heel and yet the crowd popped big time for him and booed Shawn Michaels (So yeah Babyfaces getting booed after winning the big one isn't a NEW problem in Wrestling despite what some may tell you).
If you're gonna correct someone on wrestling history and add a K to Ric Flair's name then how much do you really know wrestling? Seems like an obvious mistake to avoid if you know wrestling history. I'm being facetious but still
Sid knew how to engage with the crowd and to make their entrance money's worth, him shouting: *POWERBOMB!!!* and the crowd either going along or cheering is enough proof of how over he was with them.
RIP Sid. That dude loved softball, but was by all accounts great to fans and friends. His early WCW run was dope. His WHC win over Shawn Michaels is the hottest crowd ever.
the hogan/sid tag match, that right there was my childhood, and that turn in the match....man, as a kid it upset me. As an adult, it makes me respect just how well everyone performed to get that reaction from a young me. "do on to others as they would do on to you....but do it first...."-Sid. A larger than life man that was born to be a pro wrestler.
Yeah, dude could kip-up like it was nothing. Not bad at a for someone who was 6'9" and 320 lbs. Kind of like when Taker would walk the ropes, or when Bam Bam Bigelow would do crazy shit off the top rope; was unbelievable from those big guys, and it's the same with Sid.
You forgot to mention that Sid was the first guy in the WWF to actually kick out of the leg drop. I'm aware Papa Shango missed his cue, so they had to improvise, but it was accidentally a monumental moment for Sid. RIP Sid. 🫡
People should have been kicking out of that sad excuse for a finisher long before that. The leg drop as a finisher should have stopped being a thing in the late 70s the latest. Im aware of the People's Elbow but at least that finish usually followed a more impactful move.
@@jonbourgoin182 Agreed, and wrestlers' would actually sell the People's Elbow, since you were able to. Plus getting an elbow to the center of the chest would hurt quite a bit and likely knock the wind out of you in real life, so it was believable. The leg drop you just lay there like a corpse with someone's leg draped over you.
Look at the quality and status of his opponents to see Sid's greatness: Hogan Warrior Macho Undertaker Flair Bret Hart Shawn Michaels Mike Casey Alright, scrap the last one, but you get the point.
I first got into wrestling right around when Sid Justice made his debut. The match with Big Bully Busick is one of the first shows I ever watched. BTW you could have found the Sid vs. Hercules match shown in its entirety on WrestleMania VIII in the Sid/Hogan video package. 19:03 Now I have this image of Sid getting to the afterlife, seeing Warrior, and yelling DAMN IT! DAMN IT! DAMN IT!
Great breakdown to Sid’s first run in the WWF. But you forgot one important thing about this run. The press conference to determine who will face Ric Flair for the title at WrestleMania 8. Sid stood up thinking is was going to be him but it was Hogan that got the match and Sid wasn’t happy
It's hard to have good squash matches for sure. Sid wasn't the most elegant wrestler in the world, but his intensity, and charisma WELL made up for it. I was terrified of him when I was a kid. Rest in peace big guy!
About a week or so before Sid passed away is what I found out he was Rob Van Dam first WWE opponent, that's a huge RVD and Sid fan I thought that was pretty cool.
I never knew about the Sid Justice character. I was only ever familiar with the Sid Vicious and Sycho Sid characters. I just remember how scary the super angry mullet man was as a kid. It wasn't until I was a bit older, that I fell in love with his style of wrestling. For me he was the Goldberg before there was a Goldberg (except he could put on much longer matches).
If he had the passion for wrestling he had for softball we might be calling him one of the greatest ever, regardless he was one of a kind and I always paid attention when he was in the ring. RIP Sid.
In his Mania match against Hogan, what happened was that Hogan hit the leg drop and the plan was for Papa Shango to break it up for the DQ. Except Shango missed his cue and didn't get to the ring in time, so Sid decided the best thing for him to do was kick out instead of letting the ref count three. I think that's when Harvey climbed in the ring and the match got thrown out because it was supposed to end in a DQ anyway.
man i fricking loved the pyscho sid character i was a shawn michaels fan growing up and his program with hbk where he attacked his manager etc... i hated him so much but as you get older you realise it's just a character and he was awesome
For me as a child in the late 80s and early 90s...sid was probably the most intimidating and visually menacing heel in wrestling. He was just gnarly looking and his hair reminded me of ramen noodles lol
I was always a fan of SID. He was scary,, intense,, cool and unintentionally funny all wrapped into one..He was a champion in both promotions and even wrestled in the real ECW and was "over" with the fans. SID
