If Sid Vicious is in the house, it might be an unsafe work environment. And since we're talking about WCW Thunder with its locker room full of jobbers, it's safe to say Sid is there. There this week is Lubbock, Texas.

Doesn't Sid's chase of Goldberg remind of Mark McGwire's chase of Babe Ruth last year? Before you tell me I'm crazy, Sid compared himself to the Bambino recently. No softball jokes, please.

So you're probably thinking pencil in the run-in for the opening match. You would be wrong. Sid was actually IN the match, a handicap tilt against Public Enemy. Squash. Sid used his second favorite move, the chokeslam. How times have changed. At one time, the PE were world tag team champions. Then they went to the WWF and became jobbers. Since that didn't work out, they came back to WCW and they are still jobbers.

Rey Mysterio Jr. used the hurancarana on Bobby Duncum Jr. to lead the Filthy Animals to victory over the West Texas Rednecks. As happens a lot in WCW, the guys who lost the match get to beat up the winners afterwards. Curt Hennig, who interfered throughout, joined in on the four-on-three beatdown. Harlem Heat made the save. This is almost hard to digest. KENDALL Windham is a tag team champion? And what happened to Chad Brock?

Rick Steiner and Sid came out for mic time with Gene Mean. It seems that Sid is now 74-0. Wow. Just two more "wins" and Sid will shake all over. They're going to finish off the Revolution, they said. Now that's going to take a monumental effort. They said Goldberg was done with, too. So were Sting and Hulk Hogan. Say what you want, these guys know how to write revisionist history. The crowd chanted Goldberg's name and Sid and Rick encouraged them to keep it up.

Ernest Miller, that great heat machine, came out wearing a cowboy hat and a badge and proclaimed himself the new sheriff. He then drew some cheap heat by stomping on the hat. His sidekick, Sonny Onoo, kept the musician angle going by saying that "Prince" was in the house and proceeded to sing a few bars from Purple Rain. It was too much for the Cat and he told Onoo to stop because he was about to cry. To Miller's disappointment, the guy making his ring wasn't The Artist, but rather Prince Iaukea. The Cat was so mad he promised beat Iaukea is less than three minutes. If he didn't, he would leave Lubbock and never return. The crowd really popped for that gem.

The Cat won in 2:59, as announced by David Penzer. Instead of Iaukea, they should have used Sid. Onoo could have warbled a few words from his favorite Sex Pistols song. Yes, THAT Sid Vicious has been dead for 20 years but it still would have worked because we've got one that's very much alive. Sid could have walked out and taken care of business. Yes, the Cat is a FOB but if he can job to Buff "I don't do Jobs" Bagwell, he can job to Sid.

Harlem Heat scored a ho hum win over the First Family after Jerry Flynn accidentally kicked teammate Hugh Morrus. Booker T nailed the missile dropkick and pinned Morrus.

They showed another awful vignette of Coach Buzz "Glacier" Stern reaming his students in the weight room. This is one of the worst segments I have ever seen on WCW and I'm not kidding. Some fairly decent sized guy is squatting a whopping 95 pounds as if it weighed a ton. Sid should have run in and powerbombed everybody. This was just as bad as it gets. The last time they pushed this guy he was a miserable flop who never got past mid-card status.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Thunder is turning into another WCW Saturday Night. The only reason I'm writing about it is because Sid was there and I'm the only Sid mark on the Internet! That gives me an idea. Sid could appear on WCWSN and powerbomb everyone on the entire card. His quest to catch Goldberg would be considerably shortened. Yeah!

Shane Douglas and Dean Malenko secured a overly long squash over the Disorderly Jobbers. Malenko won with the Texas cloverleaf. This whole Revolution think just continues to fizzle with each segment. When is Douglas going to DO something?

Diamond Dallas Page preceded his squash over Chavo Guerrero with mic time with Gene Mean. He got the cheap heat by calling Lubbock a dump. He then said Sting, Goldberg and Hogan were on his list. He's going to go from being the two-time, two-time, two-time heavyweight champion of the world to being the three-time, three-time, three-time champ.

When Chavo entered the ring, he and DDP swapped mother jokes. Then DDP got down to business. He got in a rock bottom and then the diamond cutter before pinning Chavo.

Right before the main event, Penzer announced to the crowd that Sid was too good to talk to a crowd making noise. If they would keep quiet during the match, Sid would never return to Lubbock. Hilarious. I guess the WCW crew didn't like Lubbock too much.

Late in the match, Chris Benoit bodyslammed Sid and signaled to the crowd that it was diving headbutt time. The crowd got excited but I don't why because Sid ain't going to lose. Pay attention to angle, please. Benoit executed the move and hit nothing but canvass. Perry Saturn got tagged in and then Sid tagged him with a powerbomb. At the same, Benoit had Steiner in the crippler crossface. Of course, as the ref was checking on Steiner, he got punked, leaving Robinson to come in and count the 1, 2, 3 on Saturn.

After the match, Sid powerbombed Benoit. That led to Douglas and Malenko running in for the save. What took them so long? I supposed since Sid and Rick fled, the Revolution keeps some of its fading heat.

Sid should have had Robinson count a pinfall on Benoit, too. Then he would have been 76-0 and shook all over. So we won't see it because by time Monday rolls around, he may be 100-0.

And I'm rolling out of here.
