Chris Jericho knows how to pitch an idea to Vince McMahon. After all, he’s had plenty of other ideas approved in the past.

Jericho has helped shape his rivalries with CM Punk, Big Show, and others. But one feud he planned never saw the light of day and it would have been epic. Unfortunately for Y2J, Vince McMahon was having an issue at the time that distracted him.

Chris said one of the key things he never does is bother Vince when he’s eating or has other people in his office. Jericho spoke to Wrestling Observer Radio about one idea he had for a story but it didn’t happen because Vince McMahon had a problem with his lunch.

Jericho said he asked Vince’s security guard outside his office if Vince had eaten and he was told he had already fed his face. Therefore, Jericho assumed it was a good time to approach the boss about an idea he had for himself and Bray Wyatt.

But when Chris Jericho walked in the office he discovered he wasn’t alone because Triple H was in there too. Jericho said he went ahead and started to pitch the idea. But just as he was about to begin, McMahon asked Triple H to hand him his other steak because he was still hungry.

Even though Vince was eating and had company in his office, Y2J still pressed on.

“I’m already in the room, there’s nothing I can do,” Jericho said. “So I pitch this really cool idea of where, you know The Wyatt Family beats me up and I finally go to the only guy I can trust and I know we hate each other but it’s Shawn Michaels. And I pitch this feud where I would ask Shawn to come in the ring instead to be my partner because nobody else will and the lights go out and they come back on and the Wyatts are in there and the Wyatts beat the crap outta me and they go to beat the crap outta Shawn but then Shawn makes a comeback and beats them up instead. You never really knew what Shawn was going to say when I asked him to be my partner cause now he’s involved. He was physically attacked, it doesn’t matter what he thinks now, he’s fighting.”

“So long story short it’s Chris Jericho with Shawn Michaels in his corner versus [Bray] with The Wyatt Family in their corner at SummerSlam. And I told the whole thing and Vince looks at me and looks at his steak and looks back up at me I’m thinking I know what he’s gonna say, ‘this is genius, it’s great’… and he looks at me and he said, ‘bad cow.’ I say, ‘what?’ He says, ‘bad cow’… I go ‘what are you talking about?’ — ‘Bad cow. I heard what you said what are you talking about.’ He looks at the steak and he says, ‘this steak is tough. It’s a bad cow.’ And I realize at that point that he’s not paying any attention to what I’m saying cause he’s pissed off that he’s got a bad steak. Bad cow. And I ask him what he thinks of it and he said, ‘what else you got?’ and I go ‘ah well, I’m screwed it’s never gonna happen because Vince was eating a bad steak…bad cow.'”
