Three-time World Championship Wrestling World Heavyweight Champion and former Sex Pistols' bass player Sid Vicious was recently in Australia for a whirlwind promotional visit in the lead up to the imminent arrival of the WCW "Nitro" Tour in Australia. The event being staged at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre on Saturday October 7 2000 is the first time that "Nitro" has ever been filmed outside the United States.

The self-confessed "Millenium Man" is one of the most respected Professional Wrestlers in the world, and was recently involved in a memorable battle with current WCW champion Goldberg which will be remembered as one of the sport's most bloodiest.
