Sami Zayn has reportedly re-signed with the WWE.

Toyota has this Shawn Michaels crispness behind her movements and timing.

the no hand spring board is cool and all but check out how she doesnt use her hands when she hits the ropes. now that's ballsy

Used to think he invented the fist bump....

There’s a real charisma in Sid. I used to think the guy would be a top candidate for someone you would give a hypothetical talent transplant to. Ring skills to match the look, charisma, presence, etc. But what more did you want from the guy?

Would love to see Sid vs. Brock in some alternate timeline.

JR and Vince such an interesting duo on commentary.

Loved Sid. He is such a weird case because you can argue that he was both an over and under achiever.

He had one of the best looks ever, and should have been one of the biggest stars ever but is not really remembered with much reverence within the industry.

He is also a multi time World Champion and Wrestlemania Main Eventer despite being a guy that viewed himself as a softball player who wrestled for money.

Both are valid arguments, which just adds to the mystique of the master and ruler of the world!

Also random FYI, Sid's entrance music has to be a top 10 all time instrumental only theme. Jim Johnston at his finest.

Just going around and seeing where some people I remember are now currently employed. Had no clue referee Brian Hebner was in Impact Wrestling. He was a good referee. If you’re picking your crew for a promotion, I don’t know how you don’t have Mike Chiota and Brian Hebner as your two most forward referees. Just keep Earl, Jr. away from the merchandise.

I loved Sid when I was a kid. When I had a shit ton of those bone crunching rubber limbed figures from the mid and late 90s, I would consistently book him strong in my toy fed lol. Thought he was cool as fuck. The way he cut promos, his look, his powerbombs. Sid was the man.

Damn this was almost a decade ago

Sid is the perfect counterpoint to all the "Workrate" marks. Dude was minimal workrate, and maximum intensity. And it fucking worked.

God I loved Heath Slater around this time. He was so entertaining.

I fucking hated Heath Slater in the first season of NXT, they were trying to do a white meat babyface thing with a guy who seemed easy to dislike. Dude had "annoying heel" written all over him. Then trying to see him try to look menacing in Nexus was a joke.

Then they finally turned him into the heel he should've been all along and he was outstanding.

Yeah when Slater left "The Corre" he became amazing.

Forgot all about The Corre....

Remember the Sid vs Cena rumors that were a big thing around 08-09

Sid is one of those guys who would be over in any time period he wrestled in. One of my favorites growing up to watch, just like Vader, as a kid you believed he was dangerous.
