Sideshow Bob existed before the Simpsons, the expression is a generic term for any insignificant person. More likely to be used by a cheeky mate or a toxic friend rather than an enemy.
Who's that loser she's going out with, some sideshow Bob, no idea.

In theory it is possible that whilst 'shuffling' a deck of cards, that the cards could be set into certain favourable positions; this expression is based upon such a premise.
Said when there is a suspicion that an outcome has been obtained in a prearranged fashion, usually by a specific person, directly involved.
