I remember him well.

Three guys in the crowd at Wolverhampton Civic Hall were giving him some lip right on the ring apron. Marty leaned over the top rope, grabbed him by the collar of his jacket and picked the guy up with one hand. After a few choice words the three idiots thought better of it and left.

F*** me so it was not just a one off then.

I saw him when i was small (well about 14) at Stockport town hall, and some guy was given him grief, anyway he grabbed the mike and said he would give the guy 50 quid if he stepped into the ring with him and this foolish 19 year old did, i swear he brought him down so fast it was untrue, he nearly broke this guy into two. frightning to watch.

This idiot deserved it though he was a right d**k!!!

Was also at a ladder match he had with Kendo Nagasaki which was so violent it made the front page of our local newspaper. Some of the crowd walked out due to the level of carnage! They broke the aluminium ladder about half way through the match and had to use a wooden table to reach the prize suspended from the ceiling. Think I've still got the pictures somewhere at the bottom of the wardrobe

He was great !
He was still in it at the time of his death. I watched Raw last night/early this morning and they've done a tribute show for him. I also managed to see a repeat of last week's Smackdown where he won a match to qualify for the Survivor Series team.

RIP

There are two side to every story.

**** or not, I simply pointed out that there are two sides to the story.

The Self Destruction DVD is full of Vince McMahon's puppets who are towing the WWE party line. Few of the "Superstars" on the DVD could ever hope to emulate the guy's popularity in his day.

Bought, got..... whats the difference? You still have it!

As for legal action..... Vince McMahan is way too smart to market a DVD with a possible slander or libel suit due to it's content. Instead they simply discredit one of the most entertaining wrestlers of all time by giving "superstars" opinions of him....... All opinion and conjecture

I for one, think that he may well be mad, but he gave me much enjoyment during childhood and I don't think any other wrester past or present can match him for "watchability"

from the wwe.com website talking about guerrero

He was a great character

It was heart failure. It was from his past – the drinking and the drug abuse. They found signs of heart disease. She (the examiner) said that the blood vessels were very worn and narrow, and that just showed all the abuse from the scheduling of work and his past. And Eddie just worked out like crazy all the time. It made his heart grow bigger and work harder and the vessels were getting smaller, and that’s what caused the heart failure. He went into a deep sleep.

In that case, then yes it is Sid you are thinking of.

He was Sid Vicious in WCW then Sid Justice in WWF and also Psycho Sid at times.

Have you seen his horrible leg break video?
