In 1991 the 7-foot tall “Cajun Giant” made his WWF debut in a dark match victory in Utica, NY. After that, Rob Maillet spent some time in Japan before eventually coming back to the WWF in 1998, when he was billed as Kurrgan, a member of a new stable known as The Oddities and odd they were indeed.
This faction consisted of several freakshow characters that ranged from two giants, to a guy in a mask who carried a Carman plush doll around. Needless to say, The Oddities were ridiculous.

The Oddities were bad, very bad. In fact, less than one year after their inception, not only were The Oddities disbanded, but all the members were subsequently released as well.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
