The Big Show made his WWE debut at the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre PPV event. During the steel cage match between Stone Cold Steve Austin and Vince McMahon, Big Show came through the ring canvas to help out McMahon. Big Show became a member of the Corporation in the process and made one heck of a debut.
In a recent appearance on WWE Network’s: Table for 3, the Big Show tells the story about that night and not making the best impression on Vince McMahon backstage.
Here is the story:
“[St.] Valentine’s Day Massacre, right? We’re in Memphis [Tennessee]. So I’m sitting there with Jack Lanza and Pat [Patterson], first day. I had a t-shirt with a pocket and my Marlboro Lights were in it. Jack goes, ‘oh, you smoke?’ Pat goes, ‘oh, you smoke!’ I’m like, ‘yeah, oh yeah.’ I said, ‘have a cigarette.’ Yeah, so they light up and I’m just sitting there, puffing away, thinking, and we’re talking. And Lanza’s talking to me and Pat takes a couple of puffs, goes over to the toilet and flushes it, sits down. Pat starts talking to me. Jack takes a couple of puffs, goes over to the toilet, throws it in the water, and flushes it. I’m puffing away and Vince walks in a whole room full of smoke [and] I’m the only one smoking” (Source: Table for 3).

Big Show continued:
“I didn’t want to be a stooge and tell on them because I’m not a stooge. I went, ‘I’m sorry, sir. I didn’t know.’ At the time, I’m like, ‘I’m not going to rat my buddies out.’ And then, later, I was like, ‘them sons of b—–s set me up!’ (Source: Table for 3).
