i think so. What the heck is the point of his passive if it can immediately be stopped by damn near any champ with any form of CC? its freakin useless.

Because it gives him massive threat, even when dead. It forces the enemy team to still focus the tank, because the tank now has 10% max hp damage on hit and massive AS.

This basically. If you get zoned into Sion or otherwise can't escape him, it still put pressure on your opponents. However useless it may be on it's own. It's like Karthus passive if the enemy moves out of range, it's still useful in the right situations.

Also it allows you the level 2 Jungle cheese so it's not even completely useless.

Ever have your allied Jarvan ult the enemy team in a ring with you as you die?

It isn't very useless then.

Sion's passive is strongest in team fights. If you for some reason get focused in and die, your team can hold the enemies in place while you punch your fist through their skulls.

You could say the same about anivia or zac. Hell, what is the point of any champ existing if they can all be stopped by CC.

Try building a GA. Tell your enemies to ask themselves the question: do we really want to have to do what it takes to kill this mofo 3 goddamn times?

They'll ignore you and you have free reign to do whatever you want in a teamfight. if your whole team dies including all 3 of your lives, you weren't winning anyway.
