Vicious then stated that his run with the company didn't go well for several reasons, but a big one was wrestlers like Hogan and Ultimate Warrior behaving poorly. Sid got so furious about Hogan ranting and raving about the 1992 Royal Rumble that he told Vince McMahon he was leaving the company:
"In that company I was in the wrong place, at the wrong time. I left a big guarantee contract to come into this place," Sid said. "I was going to do TV and PPVs for one year and after WrestleMania I was going to be the World Champion. Well, [Vince] had to fire [The Ultimate Warrior] and all that s--- changed. From the very beginning things didn't go right. We were in Albany for the [1992] Royal Rumble, Hogan pulled me out from the outside and the fans started booing him.
"We get back to the dressing room and Hogan is screaming and acting like a woman! And he's screaming at Vince [McMahon], 'He set this up! He made this happen' I didn't even know Vince was that bad of a person at the time that did things like, that was all hearsay. I went to Vince's office, stuck my hand hand out and said, 'I wanna thank you for the opportunity, but I'm gone. I cannot work in a place where grown men act like women.'
"He said, 'No, no, no, I'm not shaking your hand.' I said, 'Well, that's not going to do you any good, I'm leaving.' He said, 'Well, will you stay until WrestleMania?' and I said 'okay,' and that's what I did and finished up a couple days after WrestleMania."
