5 Lurid WWE Hotel Room Angles

2. Big Boss Man: Canine Chef

Al Snow and the Big Boss Man engaged in a 1999 feud which enjoys a curious, paradoxical intrigue nearly seventeen years later. A tale of dog murder and dog sh*t, it was one of the most abysmal ever written - and yet, 80% of WWE's roster would kill for such originality and attention.

Hostilities between the two men reached such absurd heights that Boss Man would kidnap Al Snow's dog, Pepper, holding a ransom over Snow's head (not the mannikin one). Boss Man was repentant after the fact. He had acted out because his own childhood dog had ran away when he was Little Boss Man. Promising to make amends, he instructed Snow to stop by his hotel room later in the week. Pepper would be handed over...

Snow was apprehensive, but he turned up regardless. Hilariously (as in, unintentionally), the WWF attempted to imbue its most ludicrous angle ever with an air of credibility; Snow broke kayfabe by referring to Boss Man as "Ray". If ever there was an occasion undeserving of such a shoot slant, it was probably the one where Al Snow was made to eat the remains of his dog.

Yes, the Boss Man made good on his promise. He handed Pepper over on a literal plate. Al Snow could only vomit the poor dog out. "Tastes like chicken," Boss Man surmised.
