1.Early career
Sid Eudy entered the wrestling industry after an encounter with Randy Savage and his brother Lanny Poffo.Eudy was trained by Tojo Yamamoto.WCCW saw him wrestle as Sid Vicious, taking his name from the punk rock musician, who played bass for the Sex Pistols.Eudy signed with WCW and wrestled as Sid Vicious.Managed by Teddy Long, The Skyscrapers feuded with the Steiner Brothers and the Road Warriors.During this time, he incorporated the Powerbomb as his finishing move, popularizing it with audiences in North America.Eudy was replaced by Mean Mark Callous after suffering a broken rib and a punctured lung.WCW World Heavyweight Championship, Eudy left the company for the World Wrestling Federation.Sid subsequently participated in short squash matches to get his character over as dominant and tough.His first big feud was with top heels Jake "The Snake" Roberts and The Undertaker, when he saved Randy Savage and Miss Elizabeth from an attack by Roberts and Undertaker at their wedding reception.However, Justice turned heel and feuded with Hogan following events that took place at the 1992 Royal Rumble, with the two facing off in the latter of the two main events of WrestleMania VIII.Some sources indicate that Sid kicked out of Hogan's leg drop finisher because the planned interference from Papa Shango was accidentally late, meaning Sid had to kick out to preserve the intended DQ finish involving Shango and the Ultimate Warrior.Exact details of Eudy's immediate departure are equally unclear.In a later interview, Eudy stated he was negotiating with WCW to return because of his unhappiness with the environment of the WWF.However, Vince McMahon made it financially worth it to remain with the company.With that, Arn Anderson threw beer in his face and both men stormed to their hotel rooms.Sid went to his room to find a weapon and could only find a chair.Sid came back and knocked on Arn's door calling for the fight.Arn opened it and lunged at him with some scissors, cutting Sid's stomach.Both were rushed to the hospital and survived the incident; Anderson suffered stab wounds to the face, chest, arms, stomach, and back.Sid has apologized to Anderson for what happened and the two are now on speaking terms.USWA Championship by forfeit when Lawler, who had been attacked and injured by Eudy earlier in the card, could not appear for the scheduled match.In January 1995, Lawler was able to win the USWA championship back when Spellbinder's interference backfired.On the RAW after WrestleMania, Shawn Michaels offered to give Sid "the night off" for a coming rematch after accusing Sid of costing him the WWF title against the champion Diesel at WrestleMania.In turn, Sid powerbombed Michaels several times, only for Michaels to be saved by Diesel, thus turning Shawn face.This incident was notorious as the fans in the RAW audience were legitimately cheering Sid's attack on Michaels (something that would repeat itself a year and a half later when the two feuded over the WWF Championship).Sid's powerbombs put Michaels out of action (in reality, giving Michaels time to recuperate from back injuries suffered prior to the powerbombs).WWF Title at two of the next three pay per view events.Diesel (and Bam Bam Bigelow, who recently was fired from the Million Dollar Corporation) throughout 1995.He was later brought back as a face in July of that year to team with Shawn Michaels and Ahmed Johnson against Vader, Owen Hart, and The British Bulldog.Sid went on to win the WWF Championship from Shawn Michaels at the 1996 Survivor Series at Madison Square Garden.Sid lost the title back to Shawn at the 1997 Royal Rumble.This was Sid's last appearance in the WWF until June of that year when he returned to setup a King of the Ring tag match.In October 1998, Sid came back to the local Memphis circuit when he began a three week run on Randy Hales' PowerPro Wrestling.They included Ken Giddens, Jeff Droke, Kevin Fertig (Kevin Thorn), Mike Ashmore, and Ron Reagan.In 1999, the POB moved to the Memphis federation, Kick Ass Wrestling, and spent time there until Sid returned to WCW.Extreme Championship Wrestling (1999)
Sid appeared in ECW from January 1999 to May 1999 and feuded with the Dudley Boyz, John Kronus, Skull Von Krush, and Justin Credible.He left ECW due to the monetary problems plaguing the promotion.After spending some time in ECW, Eudy returned to WCW in 1999 where he feuded with Kevin Nash, Goldberg, and Scott Steiner.WCW began nicknaming Sid "The Millennium Man", shortly after Chris Jericho's "Millennium Man" gimmick debuted in the WWF.WCW even released a home video highlighting Sid's return to WCW called Sid Vicious: Millennium Man, but on the original print the word "millennium" was misspelled.Upon returning to the WCW, Sid Vicious was dubbed as undefeated, having a winning streak much like Goldberg had previously.Bret Hart was forced to relinquish the title due to a concussion.He would go on to lose the match and the title to Chris Benoit, but Benoit was on his way to WWF at the time and the title was vacated the next night on Nitro.Sid and Nash was set up, and just like he had on Nitro, Sid defeated Nash and became champion again.On March 19, 2000, Sid faced Jeff Jarrett in a defense of his title.He won thanks in part to help from a returning Hulk Hogan, which set up a match for the following night's Nitro pitting Sid and Hogan vs.However, shortly after this, WCW began its New Blood angle, and Sid (along with all the other WCW titleholders at the time) was stripped of his championship.He did not play a large role in the angle that followed, and he vanished for several months.Though failing to capture the championship at Starrcade, he managed to earn himself another shot at the title for the following year.Prior to the match, members of WCW management allegedly felt that Eudy needed to broaden his arsenal of wrestling moves and supposedly suggested that he try an aerial maneuver, despite his "unwillingness."The fracture, caught on video, was too graphic for many TV stations to air.It would really be the retirement match."For a while he used a cane to walk.The injury forced a plot change in the 2001 SuperBrawl Revenge event.The main event was supposed to be Nash, Diamond Dallas Page, and Sid against Scott Steiner, Jeff Jarrett, and Road Warrior Animal but was rewritten to Kevin Nash vs.Stars commissioner during their 2002 Australian tour, though at the beginning of WWA's Sydney show, it was announced that Eudy would not be featured due to a broken arm.Appearing as Pierre Carl Ouellet's mystery partner, Eudy competed and won a ten team battle royal.He continues to wrestle on the independent circuit, staying known as a durable competitor despite the infamous leg break.Fuck Off Radio with Violent J.During the segment, Sid mentioned once again that he was working on getting involved with WWE again.Sid appeared on a radio show on November 25 and confirmed that he has been in talks with Vince McMahon for a while and is "trying to get things worked out".Personal life
