I'm just watching some old WWF from when he was Champion (early 97-ish)... And it never really struck me at the time how freaking awesome (and over, too) Sid was. I mean, I dunno how much he drew or anything like that, but he was tight, man. I want Cena vs. Sid yesterday.

Sid's best moment was in WCW; the powerbomb to Brian Pillman in the Wargames match. Belee dat.

I'm watching it right now, actually. At one point, they get up on Sid and Rick Steiner in a corner with the camera, and you can clearly hear them calling the next spot.
Sid: Is he coming?
Rick: Yeah.
Sid: Is he gonna (something I couldn't quite make out, sounded like stun) me?
Rick: Yeah.
Sid: Let's go.
After which, Sid gets reversed on a irish whip right into a flying clothesline from Scott Steiner. ;D
Still though, how can you hold it against him? He smells powerbombs, man.

I believe the answer you were looking for was VADER.
The answer is - VADER.

LMAO, when I first saw the name of this topic, I thought it was gonna be a thread about Big Van Vader, but instead it's Sid Vicious. Wrong Master of the Powerbomb...
Oh, and another goofy memory of Sid: During the countdown show prior to one of the early In Your House PPVs, he's cutting a promo for his match against Diesel, flubs his line, then breaks character, talking normally to interviewer Jim Ross, asking, "Can we start over?", to which Ross replies, "We're live", and Sid just has to continue...

Every time I see Sid, I think of the Undertaker talking about scoop slamming him, and Sid shitting his trunks because he had a stomach flu during the match.
I also automatically think of Sid's Down's syndrome buddy that he used to have in WCW. I could never understand the logic behind that move. I don't know if that or Mae Young's "hand birth" was more tasteless.

Funny you should mention that, because it was listening to "Real American" for HOURS ON END that inspired me to make the avatar. Seriously, I opened the song in Winamp last night, and haven't changed it since.

If I could do it on this thing, I'd put that animation from the Real American video of Hulkster rawkin' out right here. But, I can't, so I'm going to make Geese do it.

Stop. Stop. Stop.
Please tell me where I can get this story about sid shitting his pants.
PLEASE.
This may replace the 'Curt Hennig poopin' in a bucket under the ring' tale as best story of wrestling ever.

Stop. Stop. Stop. Please tell me where I can get this story about sid shitting his pants. PLEASE. This may replace the 'Curt Hennig poopin' in a bucket under the ring' tale as best story of wrestling ever. There's a show up here in the Frozen North called "Off The Record", it's a sports talk show on our sports network (TSN). During the Attitude era, it was common to see WWF guys interviewed on the show, and once they had the Undertaker on the show. The host asked him for messed up stories from his wrestling career, and the Undertaker mentioned scoop-slamming Sid, then noticing an "nasty smell emanating from Sid", and that Sid had shit his trunks as a result of a nasty stomach flu he had. It's common to find stuff about this happening in their WM13 match, but apparently it happened at a house show. I'm surprised stuff like that doesn't happen more often with guys like Vader moonsaulting dudes, only instead of just shit, it should really be a couple of feet of lower intestine... And what's all this about Hennig backing one out into a bucket under the ring?!?!
