[1999-11-11-WWF-Smackdown] Funeral for Big Show's father


Loss

Here we go. Big Boss Man completely wrecks Big Show's father's funeral in a segment so over the top that it's actually hilarious. Then he chains the coffin to his car and drives away with Show holding on to the back of it the whole time! Like I said, if you're gonna go this route, commit to it.

I hated this feud so much. I hated pretty much everything Bossman did in 1999. I know a lot of people think he was a great heel, and I can't really argue with that, but stuff like murdering a pet and making a mockery of a funeral was so evil that I just didn't want to watch it. Either way, there were probably better ways of getting fans behind Big Show than having him bawl and jump on top of a moving casket.

I don't believe people think he's a great heel in the traditional sense, just that he was so over the top evil it was hilarious. Interrupting a funeral: bad. Doing it in the fucking Bluesmobile: awesome.

A friend of mine once told me there was a backstage skit where Angle said to Boss Man "you don't like the Big Show, right?" and Boss Man replied: "Are you kidding me? I dragged his daddy down the highway at high speed!"

 

To which Angle just sort of stared at him. "Riiight."

 

The giant megaphone on top of the car is the real pièce de résistance here. I forgot about him propositioning the Big Show's mother, too. He hits Show with a car, sending the funeralgoers over to tend to him and allowing Boss Man to "make his Daddy a drag queen." This is so over-the-top that it becomes a sort of high art.
