Wasn't that in his stupid comic book?

It was after his comic book. I don't know the exact date but maybe early 2010s. [/quote]

I think I remember this now. I know I've seen it, but couldn't remember the context.

Hat and boots would be practical in that heat but a necktie? Was Big Show planning to attend a job interview in the middle of the desert, perhaps be invited to a wedding, did he have a court appearance on that day?

Followed by Jericho almost ending his WWF career by unintentionally humiliating 'Taker by calling it "boring" because Undertaker knew he was right, and got super pissed off.

Probably not a good idea to refer to another wrestler's promo as boring in another promo though. I'm no Taker fan but I'd be pissed off too

Jericho being a heel, the fans were probably meant to disagree with him, but the issue is that it hit too true. I mean, heels call wrestlers lame, losers, etc, all the time, and provided the narrative doesn't validate them, it doesn't tend to be an issue. Here, yeah, Undertaker cut quite possibly the worst promo of his career, and was in a terrible place in his personal life, so yeah, a line that would have been nothing usually accidentally got Taker square between the eyes.

NGL, as bad as that promo was, it does sound like something a coked-up wrestler in the 80s would have said. Now imagine if the promo was recited in that manner!
