Sid Eudy, also known as 'Sycho' Sid Vicious, has passed away at the age of 63. The WWE legend, whose real name was Sid Eudy, had been battling cancer for several years. His son Gunnar took to Facebook to confirm the news and express his deep sadness, stating that his father was a man of strength, kindness, and love, and that he will be greatly missed. The family is grateful for the thoughts and prayers during this difficult time and will be sharing details of a memorial service soon.
The official WWE website also paid tribute to Eudy, acknowledging his reputation as "The Master and Ruler of the World" and his influence on wrestling around the world. Throughout his career, Eudy also wrestled under the names Sid Justice and Sid Vicious, facing off against legends such as Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, the Undertaker, and Sting. He headlined multiple pay-per-views during the peak of his career in the late 1990s.
Eudy rose to fame in 1989 when he signed with WCW, where he faced off against some of the biggest names in wrestling. He also had a successful career in the WWE, winning the championship twice and serving as Special Guest Referee at SummerSlam 1991. In 2001, a serious injury forced him to mostly retire from the ring, but he made his final appearance in 2017, defeating fellow sports star Paul Rosenburg.
In one of his last interviews, Eudy reflected on his life and career, describing himself as the hardest worker he had ever met. He was known for his determination and work ethic, and his colleagues and friends attested to this, claiming that no one worked harder than him. Eudy credited this drive to his family, stating that overachieving ran in his genes, with his father being a pilot who taught him to fly.
Eudy is survived by his wife Sabrina Paige, and two sons, Gunnar and Frank. Gunnar also pursued a career in wrestling, following in his father's footsteps. Frank appeared on the US version of Big Brother. If you have a celebrity story or news, please get in touch with us. We would love to hear from you.
