Master and Ruler of the World...

News is circling on social media of the Passing of Sid.  just wanted to make a thread for anyone that wanted to drop any fig memories or memories in general of Sid Eudy.  His entrance at Survivor Series '96 is one of the best! that crowd in the garden went absolutely nuts for Sid.  Charisma off the charts, intensity, size, Sid was money everywhere he went.

Kinda sucks that a lot of fans only really know him from either the broken leg, “we’re live pal”, or “I have half the brain as you.” He’s so much better than the memes he became after his career was over. As far as figs, he didn’t seem to get that much love from Mattel. Definitely needed an elite Sid Justice in wrestling attire. Hoping his death doesn’t delay or cancel his legends fig as it was one of the few things at SDCC that got me excited.

When he beat Shawn at Survivor Series 96 in MSG, that moment was electric as a teenager. MSG turned on Shawn and Sid became a mega star to me.

I posted this on a wrestling site:

Oh no, that’s horrible news.

I had no idea he was in poor health. 😔

The ranks of both Heaven’s softball team and pro wrestling roster got bigger today.

Rest in peace and power, mighty Sid.

Hits different when it's someone you like...

RIP Sid.

[LA Knight Yeah!]

This is awful news

But I was happy they showed a updated Elite of him at Comic Con in the black trunks attire in the legends wave

I didn’t really watch too much New Gen era but I did like Sid when I watched
RIP

I'm very sorry to hear this. I always enjoyed whenever Sid Vicious (Justice) turned up on a wrestling program - it always got more interesting!

My early memories of Sid start around 1992, when he was Sid Justice and running around WWF...... then went "Psycho" and feuded with Hogan..... leading up to Wrestlemania 8. For a bit, we thought he would be Vince's "next Hulk Hogan"..... Good times. Perhaps my favorite era of WWE.....

Perhaps my favorite Sid Vicious match is his participation in the 1992 Royal Rumble..... it was his elimination of Hulk Hogan (and subsequent jaw-jacking) that led to Ric Flair's historic victory!

I think Sid might hold the record for the most amount of flip-flops between WWF/WCW? I know he bounced back & forth a LOT.....

And UGH I can never Un-see that horrific WCW PPV leg-break when he jumped off the 2nd rope and his leg snapped like a twig..... UGH.... makes me cringe just thinking about it.

I had the good fortune to meet Sid at a convention I was shooting in 2019! He was very nice, polite to everyone, from what I could tell. Here are some pics I took of him that day:







The man standing next to Sid is Dan Spivey, his former NWA tag team partner, The Skyscrapers!

Rest well, Sid Vicious.

He has half the brain that I do

Why is Sharmell in the WWE HOF but not Sid?

Questionable for sure.

But honestly, I think what they are doing is saving certain people for each year.

You throw out all the big ones, and the subsequent years gets less and less star power.

But! Sid should've been inducted a long time ago.

He even tweeted a month ago about it, like he knew his days were numbered. 😢

[Fighter Hayabusa]

Him passing before he got in the HOF is really somber. A lot of us criticize the HOF for their selection process (or lack there of), their obvious omissions, questionable inductees, and not actually having a physical place where fans can visit. Some have scoffed at it calling it a joke. But it clearly means a lot to many of the wrestlers to have that recognition and be celebrated as someone who made an impact. I wish he got that chance stand in front of his peers and experienced that moment.

[Sting]

This is terrible news. Sid was goated.

[zen411]

I really want a proper face Sid Justice elite or ultimate from 91/early 92. Would be nice to have blue or red trunks, no crazy eyes face. The slight smile he used to have in that era. And the Hogan tan. Hogan and summerslam 91 warrior next to ref sid makes him look so pale.

[DZ: WF Legacy]

I cannot believe they Vader'd him and didn't induct him while he was still alive. He came back in 2012, you had a DOZEN YEARS after that last match with Slater to slot him in and give him his deserved praise. Urgh.

That Legends figure coming out looks incredible with the new head, and I can't wait to add him into my collection. RIP SID

[Papi Joker]

Sid was top tier man, everywhere.

[wholefnshow420]
