[joepod]

[sayanroy36]

sid is a stand up guy, not vain, not bitter towards life, not broken down.

the greatest wrestler he never was, but what a character

[gunpowderchunmee]

@sayanroy36 he probably can't remember that much either

[Brent670]

THE MASTER AND THE RULER .. OF THE WORLD!

[lindh76m]

[gunpowderchunmee]

@lindh76m you better stop looking now or you wanna see goldberg or sid tap out of a loose cena sissy "hold" like they made benoit do it in a short match or a light throw "attitute repairment" lol

[Styme2002]

[fluffypigeonpony]

[adamfear17]

[reaverofsouls]

Wow. The guy`s in amazing shape for his age, bodybuilding aside. Would love to see him get one last run, even if its a one-off program with someone.

[alangalli15]

SID VICIOUS one of my fave wrestlers of WWF/E hope TNA or WWE sign him would be great to see psycho back in action.

[LucaToni101]

vince needs sid so sid could powerbomb cena straight to hell

[englishpiff]

[MrNativeDancer]

A great Guy and a great Wrestler, cant wait to see his film!!

[xxpandamidknightxx]

Sid Vicious is always vicious. He rawked. Without him (in 1994-2000), then storylines wouldn't of been good.

[zzDzCzCzz]

Sid should come back and powerbomb Cena through a table.

[Mutherzmilk]

sid justace is awesome he was really col to watch in ecw and EARLY wwf

[Nerotheunbreakable]

sids the fuckin man whatt a great guy

[tick2tock26]

Sid needs to come back.

[LordKalbert]

Still cute :) And still dumb, haha

[FutureWasYesterday]

I hope Sid made alot of money from his career, he put alot in to it, would hate to think he got nothing out of it.

[chocolatexviz2010]

miss u sid hope you come back to wwe there need you also glad ur leg is better

and yes sid rules the world

[yaniv235]

wwe need sid back its big rating for sure

[NWO4EVER3000]

800 pound leg press for 100 reps???

[RAV52]

The Master and the Ruler.......Hahahahahahahahaha­......... OF THE WORLD.

[dawholefnshow469]

800 pound leg press?! WTF

[kf932009]

F is For Forgetting 

[DaZ316x]

The guy asked for 5 submission moves and he says POWERBOMB LOL..

[leprechaun81atx]

@DaZ316x Cause ya tap out when Sid sets up the Bomb.

[jdrhjr]

@DaZ316x

Well, in Sid's defense, he did say it was a FINISHING HOLD and not a submission move before he named the power bomb. Cut the guy some slack. lol

[TheJojoso]

@DaZ316x maybe it was for fun cause he was the first to do powerbomb

[panasonichedgehog]

Sid's leg was under the ropes when Benoit beat him for the WCW Championship

[citizenlizard]

I understand being ruler of the world can keep you busy, but I'd be so happy if Sid just made a few appearances here and there.

[agenthelios1]

Sid is a nice guy...he gave me autograph and tookk time for some pictures. Nice guy!

[gunpowderchunmee]

the reason sid's not wrestling anymore is not softball .. it's crack! 2:12

[zZHighTimeZz]

Nice comb over, i think Apter is trying to hide something.

[pazios2002]

did his movie ever get made?

[Joecbg100]

Sid please come back.

[knightfall209]

sid put bill on stretcher!

[zazaabbass14]

Still a big basterd, go on cid, cum back man,

[haggismuncher]

I thought he broke his leg so badly he could never wrestle again no???

[logicbeforematter]

Sid !!! We miss you. Thank you for all the years of entertainment. I know you played the bad guy most of your life but we know you are great person. There will only be on Sid !!!!! :-) And no other.

We miss you. WWE bring him back !!!!

[PaulMercedes]

I've learned a couple of things from this interview...

1. Sid looks like a giant napoleon dynamite.

2. Sid still has half the brain that we do.....since he can't count to 5! 3:14

[gunpowderchunmee]

it's hard for him to distinguish if the powerbomb is a submission hold cause when he holds his opponents head in between his legs and then pulls them up most of them yell and tap i am sure cause they know they will get broken in half. any volunteers?

[BLACKFONZIRELLI]

@gunpowderchunmee they said finish hold. at the end. submissions he named first.

[teeemoy]

Powerbomb is not a submission hold. tsk tsk tsk.

[BLACKFONZIRELLI]

@teeemoy yeah it's not who the hell said that??> smh

[BLACKFONZIRELLI]

@teeemoy he said finish hold but submission.

[jeffasel]

Sid looking for a shot again. Why the hell wouldnt you pick him up? These old guys still have more talent then all these new guys in wrestling today! ...

[jeffthecoder]

@jeffasel idk man, sid had a lot of character, and he's a big azz dood..but i was always bored with his performance in the ring..are there any cool sid matches you could recommend?

[CaptainHowdy187]

@jeffthecoder Yes

Sid Vicious vs Chris Benoit at WCW Souled Out 2000

Sid Vicious vs Bill Goldberg at WCW Halloween Havoc 1999 (Mayhem re-match wasn't half bad either)

Also check out some of his matches in WCW in the early 90s when he was working with Vader, Sting and Davey Boy Smith.

[jeffthecoder]

@CaptainHowdy187 sid choked slammed benoit through the ropes, he also picked benoit up over his head and then dead dropped him..sid got bloody and was nonfunctional against goldberg..not bad

[TheLowiShow]

sid is so damn cute <3 xD

[shane4814]

I'm the master the ruler of the world. tna needs big sid man, and goldberg.

[shane4814]

I'm the master the ruler of the world.

[Necrocide187]

I'd LOVE TO SEE SID BACK IN WWE! he SHOULD POWERBOMB CENA STRAIGHT TO HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!

[stndrds79]

@Necrocide187 hahahha

[FierceIndian07]

@Necrocide187 LMAO!!!!! AAAAHH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!!! STRAIGHT TO HELLL!!!!

[An0k1n]

@Necrocide187 Never gonna happen cause what he did to Arn Anderson years ago 

[YWCAddict84]

@Necrocide187 Sids too old and broken down to make a wwe or tna comeback. hes gotta be in his 50's by know and hes been inactive for yrs. so no chance.

[D2Kprime]

@YWCAddict84 : You do realize the TNA has people 10 years older than him wrestling for them right? And he hasn't been inactive. He just hasn't been on television. Sid has done a lot of work on the independent scene in the last 5 years. There reason he isn't in WWE is because he has heat with John Laurenitis (whom was the guy that booked that stupid spot in which broke his leg.) As far as TNA goes, he probably just doesn't want to go there.

[YWCAddict84]

@D2Kprime heat or not. i dont think wwe would give him the push he wants let alone sign him for the ridiculous amount he would probably ask for. Any smart major organization would pass on a guy like sid. hes too much of a risk at this stage in his life to give any type of push to. maybe sign him to a legend contract.

[D2Kprime]

@YWCAddict84 : Sid doesn't NEED their money. He is one of the few wrestlers that actually invested properly and saved his money. At this stage in his career he picks and chooses what he wants to do because he can where as most guys from his era have work the independent circuit because they are broke or near broke. Sid botching his lines would be more entertaining the half the stuff they put on nowadays.

[D2Kprime]

Cont: Not only that, Vince considers wrestlers 'independent contractors' whom are fully responsible for their physical well-being. Sure they have the Wellness Policy and access to the best surgeons and doctors, but if someone gets hurt in the ring Vince is not liable. That's the downfall to contract labor. You can negotiate your own price, but if something happens to you on the job you are on your own.

[D2Kprime]

Finish: That being said, WWE would not be 'taking a chance' by bringing Sid back because if he breaks his leg again it's on HIM, not them. There are people whom have had for more serious injuries that have come back (Austin, HBK, Edge, etc.) Sid's health is fine. He's probably in better shape than some of the guys on the roster. He's certainly in better shape that Nash was, and Mick Foley is. Trust me, the fly-in-the-ointment to Sid coming back in John Laurinaitis. That is all.

[YWCAddict84]

@D2Kprime the taking a chance comment was only if wwe/tna gives him a huge push. if he comes in a is used as a guy who puts guys over they sure wwe/tna are not risking much if he gets injured. if all the things u are saying are true then he doesent need to come back to wwe or tna and risk injury. his best yrs are behind him and he should enjoy his semi retirement or whatever u wanna call it.

[Dfuq1964]

Sid is still vicious!

[TheShootTruth10]

what is some people obsession with sid "botch: vicious

[muckemsayuhhh18]

im surprised he didnt say and I have half the brain u do bill

[YTPNoob]

I agree with Sid on the powerbomb.

Possibly the most grueling submission maneuver ever.

Wait, what?

[1EPowerUp]

@YTPNoob lmao

[1018jg]

I hade so mutch fun talking on the phone with my hero Sid Vicious this past May

[MyNational88]

He asked for the top 5 submission holds.

The powerbomb is not a submission hold.

[ed4409]

@MyNational88 The interviewer DID say yes when Sid asked him "Finishing holds?". Interviewers fault...not Sid.

[chrisz31974]

@MyNational88 I'd be submitting after taking a few

[sammys70]

Sid your the man.

[packleader1215]

F Is For Fun - Inspired By Sponge-Bob Square Pants. (Joking!)

[saltandice9]

he ruled even when he broke is leg that weird way

[XsethovaheaX]

Sid aged badly..

[hec2006]

Man would love to see them bring him back as a surprise entrant in the Royal Rumble next year like they did with Booker and Nash this past year that'd be awesome to see!

[maxpower789z]

And the number 5 best finishing hold, Sid?

"Finishing hold? The Powerbomb!"

God Bless you, Sid! Always be one of my faves!

[Ycjedi]

I like Sid. Not the greatest worker of all time but he drew and is a good guy.

[ApocXPB]

I fucking heart Sid

[romans52345]

RIP Sid Eudy

[jhiggs17]

@romans52345 I guess RIP Sid is some kind of joke unless you're a fucking retard who likes to stir up shit. 

[MrHellohel]

can sid say wood chuck a chuck.lol, sid looks like a mix between between kane and billy gunn

[frythedeliveryguy]

I love that Sid has trouble thinking of submission moves

[MrJohrdanN]

the big man looks like he could still go

[RavenCyarm]

'Why isn't he in TNA?' Because he's not an idiot, for one.

[beermonster73]

for some reason I thought Sid was dead, glad to see he is alive and well!

[bLuDcLoT06]

he has half the brain of bill

[doddsino]

Haha...the Powerbomb as a submission...I love it/

[mduece75]

Who's the MAN...Who's the MAN!!!!

[rockytheyorky]

Unless you see Sid in person you have no idea how big he is,working for the Spectrum for 25 years I got to know him backstage,he is a great guy to.Just a massive guy who might have been stiff in the ring but a great body in the ring,God love you Sid,and thanks for being my friend in the Spectrum.

[squeezetoy1984]

@rockytheyorky Having to come across as the monster heel that he was in the late 80s/early 90s NWA/WCW and then as Sycho Sid later on in the WWF (as well as his stint as Sid Justice), he had to be a little stiff to come off as credible. Destroying countless jobbers helped, but destroying established stars worked as well. He worked great as the monster heel. Even Arn Anderson gave Sid props saying "this is what a pro wrestler should look like." Complete intimidation. Perfect monster heel!

[hec2006]

@squeezetoy1984

Yea I agree and its something I wish some heels would use more today. Sid had great charisma in the ring and in his promos as well he was by far one of the better big mans in wrestling.

[LaboSmart]

Psycho Sid can't go back and wrestle anymore because of his shattered leg

[bigsidfan]

@LaboSmart His leg is 1000% heeled. 

[gazz12345a]

Sid RULES THE WOOOOOORRRRLLLLD!!!

Sid for a surpise entry in the 2012 Royal Rumble!!!

[TeslaDRay]

@gazz12345a

oh pleeeeeeease, i hope so.

[BLACKFONZIRELLI]

@gazz12345a i agree

[BEARK1LLER]

@gazz12345a He can't wrestle because of a leg injury in wcw. He completley broke his leg which ended his career.

[eefarns]

@BEARK1LLER If you listened to the video, he said his leg is fine

[GlorifiedTruth]

Well, good for Sid. He was never one of my favorites, but he's been taking care of himself and hasn't turned out to be some giant drug addict douchebag. Kudos.

[kirkwanglers32]

Gental Giant Sids a Cool Cat The Bigger your are the bigger you fall.

BS The Bigger you are the Harder you hit.

Sid dude i loves you man

[BeyondCapoStatus]

Who's the man?!

[ElClan72]

@BeyondCapoStatus Bill Apter

[Expectnomercy316]

@ElClan72 That's what Sid use to say!

[AndrewsOpinion15]

keez2010 they wrestling at wrestlemania 13 !!!!

[crassyfrake]

F is for Fucking get Sid some immodium before wrestling the Undertaker

[cygnus122]

WWE and TNA lost interest? WTF WE WANT SID!

[Acemarksman20]

Sid Vicious has the best powerbomb of all... I hope he gets back into wrestling

[MrProud1983]

glad to see Sid is still in great shape. That leg break was fucking nasty!!

[Dungarth]

Sid is still huge! but probably around 6'7 now. in his WWE peak he was about 6'9.

[Richie3Jack]

F is for get the fucking scissors away from Sid.

[mehlol1]

i can't understand a damn word he says

[theinfamousmrsleep]

I want to see Psycho Sid Vicious power bomb the shit our of orton and cena

[bigbuttaballz]

Lord Humongous!!

[thecityalive]

he sounds like he has lost it.

[SCBianchi]

I would like to see footage of someone submitting mid powerbomb to validate his claim that its a submission move.

[PabloMGP]

@SCBianchi He said finishing hold, he made clear before he said power bom

[swiv2d]

where's this film of his, is it on youtube.

[PabloMGP]

@swiv2d He sais you can find the trailers, not the film

[Epic13]

WHO'S DA MAN!!!!

SID > Legend!

[doublepenetr8or]

My favorite monster heel of all times.

[unclebobpart2]

Hey "Allstate"..... I will NEVER buy your stinking insurance. Fuck you and your annoying commercials. Fucking ripoff scammers.

[BishopCR7]

Man, why does this old guy always ask bad questions at the end?

name five of the deadliest submission holds, not 2 maybe 3, but FIVE, why so many?

and his last question in the past week has been the "if someone wrote a book on Randy Savage, what would you name it?"

weird terrible questions

[DeepSouthWrestling1]

@BishopCR7 :"...this old guy..."!?!? That's Bill Apter, you clueless putz!! He's been in the biz for over 30 years!! He was the editor of dozens of wrestling mags, including PWI!!! Jesus, get a clue!!

[TrueLagoon]

@BishopCR7 obviously he does that to end the interview on a good note.  If you'll notice, he asks the hard hitting questions from the beginning through the middle and then he closes the interview with something funny or light hearted.

[heil99]

Sid would make an awesome monster in a remake of "Frankenstein." He could be the new Karloff!

[DeLanoCorleone]

I have to say Sid Vicious is one of the kindest persons I have ever met..He deserves a 2nd chance..His leg is 100% and he is still in A-1 shape..This is a quality person... He deserves to not only be Wrestling but also in the WWE Hall of Fame..

[PabloMGP]

@DeLanoCorleone I agree with, but sadly in the wreslting industry, Major CRAP like Shawn Michaels gets to be called the greatest ever by a buncj of morons, and a true gentleman like said is snobed by the major promotions. Go figure

[snakeyes1985]

damn still looks good in 2010 he would demolish the stars today how about sid vs cena

[DigitalCoins]

sid looks like herb from two and a half men

[aguamoose]

kurt ankle lol



[Rollie1961]

I didn't know that Larry David did wrestling interviews!

[cstring420]

Sid sound like a retard. I liked the Psycho Sid Character from the mid-90s, though.

[stue083]

haha, sid is the man glad to hear he is gd, got like this guy he was made 4 the business HOF'er

[BigJimUK]

Stiffest is the sharpshooter? Perhaps a little dig at the Hitman there.

[ItchyGoomie]

He named off the weakest finishers except for the powerbomb. Thats funny. Glad to hear he is lifting and is in good shape

[TheNewMusicNetwork]

this guy could still destroy anyone

[coates27]

I wish they would put him in one of the wrestling games man

[Funnysterste]

i know why wwe does not want sid back. they are scared of wrestlers who are loved by the people. they would be to mighty and may demand things like money or something.

[bigdaddyreynolds]

effizzfor fun?

[thezoneforonlyyou]

the more they bring back,the more it'll actually be worth watching, and fuck this gay ass "draft"bullshit, enoughs enough with that. wresting was better then it EVER was around WM 18,EVERYONE was on EVERY show and it was impossible to miss..now its like, what a waste of airtime!

[thezoneforonlyyou]

wow wwe AND tna are retarded. I would LOVE to see SID back, wwe needs to get they're heads out of there asses and REALIZE the new wwe FUCKING BLOWS, sure the rock is back [sort of] WHY NOT SID who's in shape and ready to compete?

[ilikethecoke]

I hope Sid will at least be able to return to WWE should they want to induct hi to the HoF (which I feel he deserves)

[RinkWarriors]

Sid is a beast!

[Qnzdipset1]

how do you recover from that crazy leg injury??

[Buckeyecat2002]

Sid always sounded and acted like a motivational tweeker

[Ghostrider623]

the ultimate ruler of the universe

[tornmask]

i still have "Psycho Sid" w/ his arm rised wearing the WWF Winged Eagle Belt in my cell phone wallpaper!..AWESOME! =0]

[HBK344356]

He seems like a real great guy

[allstarjeff1]

Dumb as a box of rocks lol

[charvelgtrs]

Poor Sid actually has a Heart. 

[Trail717]

The powerbomb is a great submission move, i agree with Sid.

[sayanroy36]

@Trail717

he specified finishing move

[Cyberpunk747]

I'm not a wrestler. But I don't think the Powerbomb is a submission move.

[TheEviIOyo]

@Cyberpunk747 in japan it is, repeatedly powerbomb them into submission, jericho used to do it.

[treetoptop]

I was surprised, Sid seems like a really down to earth and likable guy. Party on Sid!

[RaVeN19Dizzle]

@treetoptop Party on Garth....

[hankseptember]

@RaVeN19Dizzle lmao

[jamiirali1]

sid still rules the world!!!!!!!!

[DeegoL9]

He seems like he's a great guy

[stufaman]

Sid would sort out the now dull WWE. Hopefully the Rock can salvage the crap left over.

[Blade5276]

SON OF A BITCH I haven't seen so much as a photo of sid since he broke his leg at that wcw ppv if my memory servers he never came back before the company closed. He really looks good!
