Arn Anderson Addresses Sid Vicious' Passing
The two men had a contentious relationship dating back to an incident over three decades ago.
WWE Hall of Famer Arn Anderson has reflected on the passing of his fellow former Four Horsemen member Sid Vicious, who died last week at the age of 63.
Speaking about the Master and Ruler of the World on his ARN podcast, The Enforcer said:
"Well it was a shock, as it always is. The wrestling world lost a giant. He was definitely a monster, left a mark on this business that people will remember for decades to come. He had the best look. I would go this far as to say he had probably had the best look of anybody in the history of the business. Just see him walking into the room, he's just a monster. And you know, our thoughts and prayers for his family certainly go out. And very, very sad to hear what a huge loss we woke up with yesterday morning. It was, hooo. It's never a shock, but it is a shock. In our business, we beat our bodies up. Our bodies are actually in dog years aged a lot. But I had no previous knowledge of any illness or anything that was said, so it was a shock. And like I said, our thoughts and prayers go out to his family, to his fans equally as much, and let's just give them some thoughts and prayers that they're going to need going forward".
Though they were once in the same stable together, the relationship between Sid and Arn took a turn during a WCW tour of the UK in October 1993. The two men got into an infamously bloody fight at a hotel in Blackburn, which resulted in Sid being released by the company. They later reconciled and worked together when Sid returned to WCW.
Sid's son Gunnar shared further details on his father's passing.
