Vickie Guerrero overcame critics early on in her WWE career to become one of the most hated heel characters in the history of the company.

Her trademark “Excuse me?!” line immediately prompted boos from audiences, while her screechy voice made her the perfect person to be a villainous General Manager on Raw and SmackDown.

Speaking in an interview with Chris Van Vliet, Guerrero revealed that her famous catchphrase was born after she forgot her lines after being given four promo changes shortly before she went out in front of a live crowd on SmackDown.

She explained:

“The crowd caught on right away. They’ll stick you with the evil eye if they know that you forgot something. I forgot my promo, sat there, regrouped, yelled ‘Excuse me!’ and I didn’t know where that came from. I did it again and they [fans] got angrier. I was just like, ‘Maybe I’m onto something.’”
