I think his debut was at Bash at the Beach 1995 when hogan was presenting a motorcycle to some contest winner, The Giant came over and threw his shirt at Hogan. It was later said that it was Andre the Giant's shirt and that he was his son.

It was at Halloween Havoc '95 that Giant fell off the building. Hogan and Giant were having a monster truck wrestling match on the roof of the joe louis arena. The bumpers were locked together and the point was to push your opponent out of this circle set up. Hogan won and they got out of the truck and started brawling. They wind up on the edge, Hogan breaks Giant's grip on his neck, Giant loses his footing and falls off. Hogan flips out and runs down into the arena to talk to the fans. Then, bam, Giant walks out like nothing happened and kicks Hogan's ass.

No, he made his real debut at Fall Brawl '95. He busted into the Wargames Cage and did some crazy neck crank move to Hogan. Which of course brought along the always awsome Hogan "Seizure Sell".

The Giant was in the front row at The Great American Bash in 95. The camera stayed on him for a few seconds at a time and I believe he took a swipe at Jimmy Hart when Hart got too close to the ringside barrier. By the way they put him on camera, it was clear he was going to be pushed big the moment he got in the ring - I just didn't expect it would be against Hogan.

 

He might have shown up once or twice afterwards and then he appeared at Bash at the Beach during The Main Event preshow, a few hours before Hogan fought Vader in the cage. After that PPV is when they really started hyping up the Dungeon of Doom, of which the Giant became a part.

 

At Fall Brawl, he attacked Hogan after Wargames - when Hogan earned 5 minutes in the ring with Kevin Sullivan - and snapped his neck with a weak looking move. Then at Havoc, the two had their monster truck contest and world title match (which was the Giant's TV wrestling debut).
