Probably has a lot to do with Sid spending long segments of his career taking time off to play softball and rehab himself and probably not abusing the party drugs as much. No illusions he probably did do steroids but probably stayed away from drinking and coke.

Sid was the only heal that I was legitimately afraid of as a kid. His intensity was so strong! I could feel it through the screen. I loved him.

Sid justice 1992 will always be the most underrated heel in wrestling history! As a 5 year old he legit scared the crap out of me and I honestly thought he was gonna murder hulk Hogan 😂

The shock master was doomed the moment some idiot said you are going to wear a glittered storm trooper helmet. The trip and fall was just the quick end.

I wanted to hear his answer about his favorite version of his character. For me it's WCW Sid Vicious period. WWE always waters down intense characters who come with a reputation from another promotion.

You go back and watch that, Sid did so damn well staying intense and trying so hard to save that segment. He seriously was the unsung hero of the Shockmaster debut, LOL!

Sid was one of the best big men and one of my favorites.

Sid!!! Did You play softball at Metro Park outside of Atlanta, on the Chattahoochee River? I remember they had a bar there, adult softball, & seeing Scott Steiner there, in the mid 90s? .. I always pictured Sid playing there, even if he never did haha!! Love Sid Vicious! Underrated af!

Sid did a great job continuing with the promo

The Shockmasters debut was more iconic than Hogan slamming Andre

sucks he got that injury just weeks before the WCW buyout. The Invasion storyline really needed him.

No way this guy's 63 years old? Looks incredible aged gracefully is an understatement sheesh

A lot of the problems were on Sid's part. He didn't want to fully commit to things and always left during softball season, so that killed a lot of things he could do in the ring. No reason to build something for months to have the guy randomly say he was leaving to coach softball back home before a feud could finish adequately, and Sid really didn't care as long as he could do softball his gimmick or who he was wrestling with could go into the shitter.

He was an awful talker and was pretty mid in the ring. There were plenty of other bigger guys doing what Sid was to a higher standard. Plus, he was never committed to pro wrestling. So they did exactly what they should've with him.
