10 Wrestlers Who Saw WWE As A Vacation
4. Sid
There are countless articles listing the countless ways Sid was supposedly one of the worst professional wrestlers to ever attempt the art form, but there'll be no such criticisms of the former WWE Champion here. Instead, his wrestling holidays in between softball games in the 1990s should be a celebrated as a success story for minimalism - 'The Ruler Of The World' took Vince McMahon's money on his own terms.
Sid was twice pushed as a WrestleMania headliner, twice given the company's top title and twice considered the next McMahon Superstar in waiting before contractual disputes and a head turned by swinging for the fences in an entirely different sport pulled him away from the industry's largest stage.
His value was made more apparent by his multiple runs with the opposition - WCW were willing to pick him back up even after he'd twice departed with blood-stained acrimony and the sort of heat that could have black-balled lesser specimens.
There are those that graft half to death just to earn an opportunity, and those that get presented the moon on a stick. Sid was the latter, yet still managed to always keep a keen eye on his own big picture.
