The Big Bossman made things personal with The Big Show during their 1999 feud when he crashed Big Show's father's funeral.
Bossman ended up dragging the casket through the graveyard, with Big Show jumping on top of the casket.
Former WWE writer Tommy Blacha appeared on Talk Is Jericho with Chris Jericho and recalled the segment.
"In reality, his dad did die of cancer and he brought the idea. ‘It’s okay. My dad was a fan.’ He’s at the funeral, so how about Bossman attacks him at the funeral and drags his dad’s coffin away? That’s another one where Vince takes his glasses off, ‘That’s gotta be done.’ We did it. Big Show jumps on the coffin and he rolls off. He had white socks on, right? Everyone is watching it backstage and everyone is going nuts and popping. Big Show is like, ‘Ah, I shouldn’t have worn those white socks.’ It weirdly filtered to Vince. ‘Ah, it didn’t make him look like a destroyer of men.’ It was over. I guess it’s humorous. Everything lands and he didn’t want it to just be, ‘Great job. So funny.’ ‘I don’t know. Made him look a little weak,'" recalled Blacha.
The Big Show would defeat Bossman in three minutes at WWE Armageddon 1999.
Elsewhere during the interview, Blacha recalled Mae Young giving birth to a hand. You can find his comments on the angle by clicking here.
