Sid Vicious is arguably more well known for his infamous blunders on the microphone than any of his performances inside the ring. His legendary I have half the brain that you do quip will go down in wrestling infamy. However, Sid was a popular performer for many years in the wrestling world. Despite this, no one would argue that Sid was a technical marvel between the ropes. Prior to a WCW World Heavyweight Championship match at 2001s Sin PPV, it was suggested to Sid that he try and diversify his offensive arsenal. WCW management had taken it upon themselves to suggest that Sid try some high-risk maneuvers. You know the one thing a 69, 300-plus pound wrestler with limited in-ring abilities should never try? Thats right, aerial moves. Well, to Sids credit, he gave it a go during the bout, and it ended horribly. Sid climbed to the second turnbuckle and jumped off. He hit Scott Steiner with a flying big boot, landing with all his weight and force on one leg. Sids leg instantly snapped in half. It was a truly horrifying sight, as Sids lower leg bent to the side and just flopped around. Sid could do nothing and just laid on the mat until the matchs conclusion. Sadly, Sids career was essentially over because of the injury. He made a few brief appearances for smaller promotions and has wrestled a handful of contests for independent shows across the country, but Sid was never the same again.
