* WCW Monday Nitro {Episode 51} September 2, 1996 *
Eric Bischoff: HERE COMES THE GIANT, LOOK OUT NWO!
Mike Tenay: Thank God for The Giant!
Eric Bischoff: Never thought we would hear it . . . The Giant is GONNA HAVE THEIR LUNCH! The Giant is in the building—Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, WOAH, WOAH, WOAH! [As Giant picks up Barbarian and choke-slams him] THE GIANT!
Mike Tenay: What is this?
Eric Bischoff: THE GIANT! NO! [As Giant picks up Meng and choke-slams him] NO!
Mike Tenay: What is—What’s going on here?!?
Eric Bischoff [(Sarcasm)Sounding COMPLETELY CONVINCING in his extreme element of surprise(/Sarcasm)]: CAN’T BE! NAAAWWWW! [As Giant high-fives Hollywood Hogan]
To sum up everything in the best fashion FATHOMABLE / IMAGINABLE, here’s the greatest (and CLOSING) exclamation of the evening, let alone one of the all-time most incredible statements ever concocted in the history of professional wrestling (And no, I’m NOT Tony Schiavone aka Skee-Uh-Voan, nor is this a form of hyperbole) . . .
[After the announcers’ booth set had been previously demolished / destroyed / dismantled]
“I SIT DOWN AT A TABLE!” Quote, Paul Donald Wight
[Giant throws off his headset, as that is the CONCLUDING FINISH to the promo. Then he slips while throwing an office chair, possibly legitimately perturbed in the process, since Hollywood Hogan kept interrupting him during this entire segment, while he attempted to tell his story of visiting Hogan’s home per “Trillionaire Ted” DiBiase beckoning said business arrangement. Show fades to black on that EPIC NOTE!]
Mid-story, for about the third or fourth time, and that's the amazing analysis of the business meeting . . . completely cut off, out of time...he, like a normal human being, SITS DOWN whenever he is at a table for any reason...END SHOW! Granted, he wanted to explain more, and had already given a slight synopsis prior, during several simultaneous interjections and scripted fight scene interruptions as well, not that any of the television audience really cared, nor did spotlight-stealing, yucking-up-limelight-upon-'interview'-time Hollywood Hulkamania, Brother!

That's right folks, Paul Donald Wight AKA "THE GIANT!!!" AKA (WAAAAYYYYYEELLLLLLL, it's the) Big Show aka Big Slow aka "Please Retire!" is gonna SIT DOWN when he's at a table . . . and have YOUR lunch . . . not just his . . . and not necessarily have YOU for lunch in a fighting scenario, but rather, to the complete and utter surprise of NO ONE on planet Earth, the dude is gonna scarf down your surely nutritional nourishment around noon!
Just always loved this entire saga over the years, often going back and taking glimpses at the magic that was inadvertently created on that fateful, infamous night, especially with comments from YouTubers, and currently when viewing in better quality on the Network nowadays, the hilarity quite simply ensues, much to my delight. I thought it was time to provide a bit of a transcript, be it in blurbs / blips, of course . . . to highlight & shadowbox its under-appreciated-yet-deserved notoriety!
