Sid Vicious’ family reacts to WWE Hall of Fame announcement
Sid Vicious’ sons Frank and Gunnar are grateful that their late father is being honored with a WWE Hall of Fame induction.
It was announced today that Vicious (Sid Eudy) will be posthumously inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame during WrestleMania 42 weekend. A multi-time World Champion in both WWE and WCW, Vicious passed away in 2024 after privately battling cancer for several years. Shortly before his death, Vicious expressed hope that a Hall of Fame induction would be in his future now that Vince McMahon was gone from WWE and no longer in control of the process.
Vicious’ eldest son Frank Eudy — a former contestant on the CBS reality show “Big Brother’ — made a social media post congratulating his father on the Hall of Fame honor.
“Congratulations to the Master and Ruler of the World! Grateful for the recognition by @wwe inducting my dad into the Hall of Fame!,” Frank wrote. “He deserves this and I wish he was here to be a part of the celebration! I love and miss you dad! #WWEHOF”
Frank’s younger brother Gunnar also reacted to the news.
“It’s official. My father, Sycho Sid Vicious, is going into the WWE Hall of Fame,” Gunnar posted. “The Master and the Ruler of the World is finally getting his flowers. Proud to be his son and to carry that legacy forward. The Hall of Fame just got a whole lot more vicious.”
Gunnar, who has competed in the ring as “Two Psycho,” is planning a memorial show for his father this August with proceeds going to benefit an animal rescue charity.
So far, the 2026 WWE Hall of Fame class consists of Vicious, Stephanie McMahon, AJ Styles, Demolition (Ax & Smash), and Dennis Rodman. Dolby Live at Park MGM in Las Vegas is hosting the ceremony on Friday, April 17.
