Sid Vicious also known as Sycho Sid or Sid Justice is one of the most dominant presences ever to enter the professional WWE ring. Standing at 6'9", Sid Vicious was not only physically large, but his athletic ability also put him in a category by himself during his era of wrestling in the 1990s. Vicious was another one of those wrestling personalities that walked the thin line of being a heel or a face, which allowed him to star in the main event of two Wrestlemania. The first being in Wrestlemania VIII against Hulk Hogan and the second in Wrestlemania XIII as a champion against The Undertaker.
Strangely, one of Sid's most memorable wrestling moments came when he was a member of the WCW roster. In 2001, the executives of the wrestling organization suggested that Sid implement more acrobatic moves to his combat arsenal. While he was opposed to it, he attempted a big boot move from the second turnbuckle which resulted in him snapping his tibia and fibula on his left leg on live television. The scene was so graphic, television stations refused to re-air the injury.
