Eric Bischoff Weighs In on Sid Vicious' Hall of Fame Worthiness

Posted By: Ben Jordan Kerin on Sep 03, 2024

Sid Vicious' sudden passing recently stunned the wrestling world, sparking numerous tributes. Despite his contributions and accolades, Vicious was never inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, leaving fans and peers reflecting on the missed opportunity.

Eric Bischoff, speaking on "83 Weeks," is among those advocating for Vicious' posthumous induction. "The legacy? Certainly Hall of Fame worthy," Bischoff said. He emphasized Vicious' impact, pointing to social media reactions and recalling clips of Vicious in WWE and WCW.

"But the impression, the legacy? Certainly [Hall of Fame worthy], all you need to do is take a look at social media and look at the responses you're getting," Bischoff pointed out. Bischoff then recalled that he had seen many clips on social media of Vicious in action in both WWE and WCW. 

"Man, he deserves so much more credit than he got," he said. "He did all the little things right...great television, great character, especially a great character." Bischoff also noted that Vicious simply had the instinct to portray memorable characters, which is something that can't be taught.

Outside the ring, Vicious also earned praise from Booker T, who credits Vicious for helping him and his brother, Stevie Ray, get their start in WCW.
