So I was laying in bed last night and for some stupid reason I started thinking about the storyline Big Show had during his first WWE title reign with the Bossman. (Moderately creepy, I know, but moving on)
You know... the one where Bossman strapped up Big Show's dead father's coffin to the back of a car and dragged it through the cemetary with Big Show on top of it?
I was thinking... storyline and character-wise... that was pretty damned mean and heartless. It got me to pondering a question to ask on here...
What, in your opinion, is the just plain meanest thing a big bad heel has ever done to his opposing babyface either during a match or during the build up?
The Big Show/Bossman thing obviously stands out in my mind... and the Horsemen used to just brutilize anybody they were focusing on.
So... what you got?

That was pretty ![](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/wfcensored.gif) ed up when Big Show was on the casket as Bossman was driving away. I thought it was funny as hell when Bossman was talking with Bog Shows mother and said something along the lines of "your a big bastard and you momma even said so"

Was pretty bad at that time that the only person they could find to feud with the Big show for the title was the Bossman!!!

When Freddie Blassie came in to give the WWE roster a pep talk during the WCW/ECW Invasion angle. As he was being wheeled out, Stephanie McMahon comes up to him & says "Soon, the WWE will be just like you- DEAD!" (or something along those lines). I know it was just a story line, but just when I thought the writers couldn't stoop any lower...

The entire Show/Bossman angle was ![](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/wfcensored.gif) ed up. From his father dying, to the cemetary, to Bossman harassing Show's mom, to slamming his father's watch on the anvil, ugh, it really went too far. Sometimes, a Chokeslam can't fix all your problems.

Ha ha... some awesome stuff I forgot about. The Blassie thing made me sad... really... that was mean lol.
I also forgot about Bossman killing Al's dog and feeding it to him.
The talk of chokeslams solving problems made me remember another one...
Back when Undertaker and Kane were tearing through their initial feud, I remember that Kane and Paul Bearer dug up the Taker's (and Kane's) dead mother and displayed the rotten casket on the stage.
Then Taker ran up there, got into a brawl with Kane... and wound up getting chokeslammed into his own mother's coffin....
....That was pretty brutal.

Randy Orton talking about Eddie Guerrero after he died.
Also anything involving Piper or Dr D David Schultz back in the 80's.

I think when Diesel tore off Mad Dog Vachon's prosthetic leg was pretty mean and heartless.

Diesel attacked Butcher Vachon during his no-holds barred match with Shawn Michaels and ripped off Butcher's prosthetic leg and tried to use it on HBK. It was at In Your House: Good Friends, Better Enemies.

Maybe he did and maybe he didn't. I'm not really sure. The only ones that stick out in my mind are when Diesel did it to Butcher Vachon and when Roddy Piper tore off Zach Gowen's leg on SmackDown. That's about it.

I think Lawler tried to take off Vachon's leg at Over the Edge 98, but he ended up getting his ass beat.

I think Lawler tried to take off Vachon's leg at Over the Edge 98, but he ended up getting his ass beat. You are exactly right! I just found the following on the internet and now its pretty clear this is what I was remembering: Michael Cole introduces both Mad Dog Vachon & The Crusher, former wrestlers born in Milwaukee. Vachon was helped to the ring, since he has an artificial leg. Cole gives them both plaques, and Vachon thanks his family and his niece Luna. Jerry Lawler (as well as some fans) didn't think the segment was worthwhile. Lawler did something about it as he got in the ring and said, "This is 1998, not 1948!" The Crusher then removes his jacket while Lawler makes fun of both of them. Crusher hits Lawler with his plaque and then uppercuts him in the throat. Lawler goes back outside, only to come back in, take his jacket off, and take off Vachon's wooden leg. The Crusher goes after him and is able to get the leg back. Lawler sneaks back in again but Crusher nails him with the leg.

I remember the whole Boos Man being funny rather than mean, it just seemed so over the top to be taken seriously. For me I remember the worse being when Jake Roberts let the snake bite Savage on the arm in buildup to Tuesday Night in Texas. That was freaking insane. One think to battereach other but suddenly he's feeding him o his snake, as a Kid I found that incredible
