The Big Show recently appeared on Chris Jericho's Talk Is Jericho podcast, and boy does he give absolutely zero f*cks. He has cried (probably literally) retirement before, but at this point he must have one foot on the beach.

Show apparently prefers working the house show circuit to TV tapings. That is an understatement.

"TVs I just want to bash myself in the head with a hammer, cause they’re just long, useless, time-wasting, bullsh*t days where you sit around all day for some frickin’ idea that absolutely sucks." Those ideas germinate from the minds of writers who "have never laced up a pair and don’t know sh*t, but for some reason they’re telling you what to do. So, you’re just walking around baffled, going ‘why are we doing this?'"

Wow.

Show didn't stop there. He described the time he was forced to dress up in a diaper in his role as the New Year's Baby - less than a month away from a major pay-per-view match with Brock Lesnar - as "weird billionaire fetish porn".

"I can just imagine Vince [McMahon] sitting there in a dark room watching it going "Yeah, now take a dump in that diaper, you fat piece of sh*t! Yeah!"
