After all the speculation of the "big comeback" of Sid Vicious he returned to Memphis Wrestling this past saturday to attack "the King" during a segment with Lawler and "Hollywood" Jimmy Blaylock. "the King" was in the ring with Jimmy when "the Blue Denim Destroyer" and his "Bruiser Graham" sidekick, Johnny "I've never worked anywhere Sid didn't get me booked" Rotten hit the ring. Lawler turns around into a choke from Sid followed by a move that could only be described as a legsweep/trip on Lawler but was put over by Maclin (and again when it was replayed) as a "chokeslam". Ok, whatever. I guess if you call it that, it makes it fact. So anyway Sid gives Lawler the "shove down of doom" and runs Jimmy out of the ring while his buddy snaps pictures on his cell phone(one can only assume it's for his myspace) The upside of this is now fans will be treated to Sid vs. Lawler in Tunica this friday which probably won't be a classic match by any stretch but it's better than another round of Lawler vs. Mr. Hughes. That's the upside, the downside, more Sid promos. If you haven't seen this yet take a moment to enjoy these words from "the Master".
He has had some of the most infamously bad promos and slip ups on live tv, such as this little gem from Nitro a few years back.
I looked for the most infamous Sid promo but apparently no one has put it on youtube where he's doing a promo at a pay per view and he stops in the middle and tells Jim Ross "cut, let's start over" and Ross replies, "um, we're live big man." Funny shit.
In all seriousness I do think Sid returning will be good for Memphis, God knows they need something to make people watch besides a sissy manager trying to juice Lawler for money in a bogus bullshit case which I cannot believe is making such headlines in the mainstream news over there, they treat it like there were two "wrestling tradedies", Benoit killed himself and his family and Sal Corrente was punched in the face.......at a wrestling show........by a wrestler. (I'll save that rant for later after I hear this interview with Corrente.) I also hear Sid will continue to make the rounds on some of the independents in the area as well. That's a good thing too, as most of the shows have been using the same "names" for the past few years.
It's being said this is the beginning of his quest to get back in the WWE, I'm not sure if that's just talk for the angle or if that actually is a possibility, hell who knows, Dusty Rhodes has a featured match at SummerSlam this year so it's never too late I guess. I'm sure Sid/Cena could get over just as good as Cena vs. Blackberg at SummerSlam will. Who knows, stranger things have happened, let's just see if he walks out on RAW one night if Johnny Rotten is standing behind him taking pictures with his cell phone and if he comes out and gives Cena the "Choke Trip" if J.R. says "GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY, WHAT A CHOKESLAM, WITH GOD AS MY WITNESS CENA IS BROKEN IN HALF!!"
