      Ian Totten Especially in ECW. I still remember Judge Jeff Jone's classic Line at Hardcore Heaven 99, "You're not getting the chair, you're getting executed by the MAN!" 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.

    I met Sid and Teddy Long one night by accident at a La Quinta. I asked them for their autographs, and they were very cool about it signed without a thinking about it. 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!

Everyone else seemed like midgets next to him and we're talking about some big guys. 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.

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. You would never see Bret Harte doing all the moves he did to Kane that he had with the evil Dentist. So for a few weeks there I was debating with friends if Kane was really Sid. lol

That crowd pop when Sid got the 3 count was huge, and they were on their feet during his whole entrance and when he was celebrating and leaving after the match.

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

      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.

      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.

      Can you explain how Austin stole sids look? He only had blonde hair for a hot min. I don’t recall Austin using more then kick, punch, snap suplex, his goofy “f’you elbow off the ropes. Kevin Sullivan wore black trunks and boots long before Sid. I just don’t see the connection. I’m not trolling, I just wanna know if I’m overlooking something.

    Man I remember the feud between him and HBK. I really believed Sid was trying to break Shawn in a half. He was scary but I loved him. Great entertainer and wrestler for his size.
