Wrestling legends Chris Jericho and The Big Show delved into various topics within the world of professional wrestling, including The Big Show’s most regrettable WWE television segment.
On an episode of “Talk Is Jericho,” The Big Show did not hold back, identifying the infamous “New Year Baby” segment as his all-time worst experience.
There’s been a lot of stuff I’ve done that has been absolutely horrendous, but I think for me personally, the worst thing I’ve done was when Vince [McMahon] made me do the ‘Baby New Year’ thing because it was so freakin’ awkward.
He vividly recalled the moment, describing how he was dressed in a diaper and a New Year hat, forced to dance.
All I could think of was some billionaire masturbating video where he’s got some fat guy. You can imagine Vince in some dark room looking at it on a big screen, like, ‘Yeah, now sh*t in the diaper, you fat b*stard sh*t in the diaper. That’s it.’ It was just so uncomfortable.
The Big Show speculated that Vince McMahon‘s intention behind the embarrassing costume was to motivate him to lose weight.
I got fat, so he goes, ‘So you’re a fat New Year Baby. Maybe you should lose some weight,’ but that’s the kind of relationship I’ve had with him. He’s getting fat, I need to motivate him. Let me embarrass him.
Which Wrestler Did The Big Show Say Was The Worst To Chop?
The Big Show said Triple H was the worst wrestler to chop due to the size of his upper chest and it is so hard that it feels like hitting two bowling with your hand.
