10 Attitude Era WWE Superstars You Totally Don't Remember

10. Giant Silva

You might remember The Oddities because of their affiliation with Insane Clown Posse. Or, perhaps you recall ex-hard man Kurrgan dancing around in tie-dye and living his best life. Those and John 'Earthquake' Tenta playing Golga are the only things anyone discussing the group ever mentions. Spare a thought for poor Giant Silva.

Who?

Silva was booked as the most imposing member of the faction for a while. The ex-basketball player turned wrestler turned MMA fighter (no, really) soaked up brief acclaim from Attitude Era fans after debuting in 1998. He'd last through until the following year before being released, but did return for a one-off on the old Super Astros show in '99.

He's one monster you never see WWE talk about when waxing lyrical about everyone from Andre and Big Show to Great Khali and even more modern examples like Omos. Silva was a prototypical "friendly giant" - he was a 'Hip Hop Hippo' before Albert.
