#7 A Jeri-Show Christmas

Big Show begs
Big Show begs "Santa Claus" to grant his one Christmas Wish: to be reunited with his best friend.

WWE has endured a lot of criticism for throwing together two singles stars with little in common into a tag team.

This doesn't work out very often, but sometimes you find yourself with a gem of a team. The Miz and John Morrison struggled to be recognized as singles wrestlers, but when WWE put them together as a team, it was magic. It may be one of the reasons WWE keeps using this tactic.

One of the times the thrown-together team worked exceptionally well was when Big Show and Chris Jericho became a pair. The fans quickly dubbed them Jeri-Show on social media, and the duo actually adopted that as their official team name. They won the WWE Tag Titles and seemed inseparable.

When Chris Jericho was drafted to RAW, however, their team was forced to disband. That is, until Big Show asked Santa Claus to grant his Christmas wish; to be reunited with his best friend Jericho.

Santa quickly agreed, but then Hornswoggle emerged from under the ring to reveal it was none other than Jericho under the white beard. Sadly, the reunion quickly soured for the best friends.

The moment also officially recognizes Hornswoggle as the mascot for DX and his induction into the notorious faction.
