In some unfortunate news, WWE legend Sid Vicious has sadly passed away at the age of 63 after he was battling cancer over the last few months.

Gunnar, Sid's son, shared the heartbreaking news that his father succumbed to a courageous struggle with cancer.
"He was a man of strength, kindness, and love, and his presence will be greatly missed," Gunnar said in a statement.

"We appreciate your thoughts and prayers as we grieve this loss."

The wrestling world also offered their deepest condolences to the entire family of Sid Vicious.
Sid Eudy, known to millions by his wrestling name Sid Vicious, was a towering figure in the world of professional wrestling. A powerhouse in both WWE and WCW, Sid dominated the wrestling industry, capturing world championships on numerous occasions and leaving an incredible mark on the sport.
Emerging in the late 1980s, Sid's career was a whirlwind of unforgettable moments. He faced off in iconic battles that are remembered forever in wrestling history, including main events at WrestleMania VIII and WrestleMania XI. His rivalries were legendary, squaring off against some of the most well-known names in the industry, such as Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, The Undertaker, and Sting, just to name just a few.
Throughout his illustrious career, Sid adopted various personalities, most notably Sycho Sid, Psycho Sid Vicious and Sid Justice, with each character adding a new layer to his already towering presence. His last match, a hard-fought one against Paul Rosenberg in August 2017 under the Great North Wrestling banner, was the perfect conclusion to an extraordinary career.

Sid's time in the ring was not without challenges. He endured multiple injuries, including a devastating leg injury during a WCW Pay-Per-View in 2001 that became very famous among wrestling fans. Despite shoulder, back, and knee issues, Sid's resilience and passion for wrestling never stopped.
Beyond the spotlight, Sid was a devoted family man, leaving behind his loving wife, Sabrina Paige, and their two sons, Frank and Gunnar. His legacy in wrestling will be remembered by fans all over the globe, but his legacy as a father and husband will stay in the hearts of those who knew and loved him best forever.
We wish the entire family our deepest condolences during this tough time.
