Sid Vicious was one of those guys who always got a push because he was big, looked like a million bucks, and got a nice crowd reaction when he stepped through the curtain. He also royally sucked in the ring and routinely would take large amounts of time off to play softball instead of wrestle.

When he was working for WCW in the early 1990s, Sid was running his mouth about how he was so big and bad and the rest of the shorter guys should just retire and make it easier on themselves. Brian Pillman and Mike Graham soon got tired of his crap and told Sid to shut up. While Graham and Pillman may have been much smaller than Sid, they certainly weren't afraid of him and Sid quickly realized his mouth wrote a check that his butt couldn't cash. Pillman got right in Sid's face and demanded that he try something but Sid backpedaled like crazy.

Sid started making many excuses as to why he couldn't fight, the main reason being that he had a serious arm injury. When the wrestlers inspected Sid's arm, it appeared as though he had a scratch covered by a Band Aid. Pillman laughed in Sid's face and made a complete idiot of him in front of most of the roster.

Embarrassed, Sid left the bar looking for a weapon. Unfortunately, he could only find a closed gas station across the street, so he returned with the most deadly weapon he could find.

A squeegee.

When Sid reentered the bar with his window cleaning device, the wrestlers almost cried they were laughing so hard. When Pillman and Graham didn't cower at the sight of the squeegee, Sid left for good.
