Sid Eudy worked for decades under a variety of ring names, including Sid Justice, Sid, Sid Vicious and Sycho Sid, for promotions including the NWA, WCW and WWE. During his NWA/WCW tenure in the early 1990s, he was part of the Four Horsemen before joining WWE in 1991, where he headlined WrestleMania in 1992.

He returned to WCW the following year before spending two years in the USWA and returning to WWE in 1995. Two years later, he headlined WrestleMania 13 against The Undertaker. Sid had a stint in ECW before returning to WCW to close out the 1990s and early 2000s. During his career, he held the WWE title twice and the world title twice.

Our thoughts are with the Eudy family at this time.
