#5 Details on former WWE champion Sycho Sid's backstage fight with Brian Pillman in WCW
Former WCW superstar Shane Douglas spoke to WSI about Sycho Sid's bar fight with Brian Pillman. He said that the two men never got along and were always itching to fight.
Once in Atlanta, Georgia, the two men got into a fight at a bar. Sid went back to his car and brought a window squeegee to be used as a weapon. Shane Douglas said the fight was likely instigated by Sid, who made a comment on Pillman:
“Pillman had some kind of issue with Sid and they had to keep breaking them up and pulling them apart. They never really got into it, but Sid left and went out to his car and he came back in with a window squeegee. We’re all looking, we all start laughing, like, ‘Is this for real? Fighting with a window squeegee?'' said Douglas.
The ECW legend also said that Brian Pillman was one of those superstars who would be ready to throw down at any second if someone was annoying him.
