Ok, so apparently Vince McMahon has gone on some kind of kick of making sure it is pounded into our brains that Big Show is, in fact, a giant.
Between SmackDown this past week, and MITB last night, I'm pretty sure the announce crew has used the word giant with Big Show on screen approximately 7,456,394 times.
Striker was the first one I heard saying it, and I thought he was just referencing Show's WCW name. Then he kept saying it, then Grisham did it, then King, then Cole, and they all kept doing it.
I could actually hear Vince McMahon yelling into their headsets, "TELL THEM HE'S A GIANT DAMNIT!!!!!" over and over again.
What the hell is going on? Is telling us his ring/shoe size and talking about his frying pan like hands not enough anymore?

Hopefully this means a title push for the Showster. With all the crap he's been put through he definitely deserves it.

A. The way you worded the OP made it seem like some sort of disease that Striker spread to the entire commentary team, causing an epidemic. I lol'd.
B. I am reminded of the time that, during a Show match during the Jerishow era, Michael Cole suddenly went, "Jericho is demanding that I tell you all that The Big Show is a giant destroyer." I lol'd again.

Do they still compare his appendages to appliances? Or did that stop once Tazz left?

I thought it was Striker making a WCW reference.

And this is something new, how? They've billed him as a giant for years.

^Yes and no. They are hammering that name in our brains now.
Maybe this will be more of a "Texas Rattlesnake" or "The Game" thing rather than name change. I mean, they just made that new shirt for crying out loud.
