“Charles Barkley, why are your eyebrows always in ‘huh’ mode?”: When Shaquille O’Neal hilariously roasted his NBAonTNT co-host for waxing his eyebrows

Charles Barkley continuously gets roasted by Shaquille O’Neal and the rest of the NBAonTNT crew for having his eyebrows waxed. 

 Charles Barkley has continually been at the butt-end of jokes and roasts for the entirety of his NBAonTNT tenure. Though he may be quick with the jokes himself, he’s shown the ability to take it while dishing it out as well. Everything from his Krispy Kreme obsession to his lack of championships has been touched upon on national television. 

Shaquille O’Neal is usually the instigator in most of the Charles Barkley slander that takes place on Inside the NBA as the two former on-court rivals continue to duke it out decades after their retirement from the league. Chuck is no slouch when it comes to roasting Shaq however as he’s gotten the Lakers legend on several occasions.

NBAonTNT however, seems to hold nothing back on Chuck as even his eyebrows aren’t safe from getting torched when chatting it up with guys like Shaq and Reggie Miller. 

Charles Barkley has his eyebrows roasted by Shaq. 

Barkley can’t seem to catch a break when on NBAonTNT and to prove that the crew, including Shaq, clown on him a bit too much for his eyebrows, there is a 5 minute long YouTube compilation solely consisting of legends getting at Charles Barkley for having oddly shaped eyebrows.

In all honesty, the ‘Round Mound of Rebound’ does have unusually thick and short eyebrows. The 1993 MVP has been clowned on it enough as it is but it’s hard not to notice. Shaquille O’Neal had perhaps the best roast of them all as he asked Chuck, “Why are your eyebrows always in ‘huh’ mode?” referring to the worrisome state they always seem to be in. 

Luckily for Charles Barkley, he’s always got Shaq’s raspy voice to fall back on in terms of looking for things to insult the 4x champ with.
