They may work for different companies now, but the Undertaker and Chris Jericho still know how to rib each other. The two got into a playful back-and-forth on Twitter this week, which saw the Deadman "apologize" for swiping one of Y2J's signature catchphrases.Undertaker was delivering a promo on Raw this week when he used the word "assclowns" to describe OC members Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows. Jericho used the phrase heavily during his run in WWE, and Twitter took notice.
"BIG lawsuit incoming," joked one user, sparking a reply from the Painmaker.
"Hardly!" Jericho said. "He's the @undertaker...he can used [sic] as many of my catch phrases as he wants!!!" The Phenom responded hours later, and this time used R-Truth’s catchphrase, saying: "My bad @IAmJericho…. I knew I had heard that somewhere before."
The two legends spent over a decade together in the WWE and have been involved in several matches together, though Jericho is currently a member of the AEW roster. However, it is rare to see All Elite wrestlers converse with WWE superstars in a public forum. There have been some interactions before, but not between names as big as Jericho and Taker.
The Deadman’s Twitter response marked the first time he has tweeted in roughly a month. His WrestleMania 36 opponent, AJ Styles, has used Taker’s social media against him in promos. The two men will square off this weekend during the Show of Show's two-day airing.
