Great Khali gone from WWE?
 
Quote:

WWE.com announced Sunday that The Great Khali suffered a fractured fibula following a brutal attack by World Heavyweight Champion Mark Henry on SmackDown Friday night. The angle was orchestrated to remove the "The Punjabi Playboy" from television since his contract is set to expire and will likely not be renewed.

Many employees feel that the one-time World Heavyweight Champion will head back to India to focus on acting. There is talk, however, that he will maintain a relationship with WWE to work on film projects and other endeavors.

End of an era? Good riddance?

Meh

You know Khali has never really been interesting to me and I never cared about what he was doing but I'm actually a little sad to see him go now. I don't know it just seems that a lot of guys I thought were gonna be the mainstays of the current era have fizzled out or left (Kennedy, MVP, and Lashley just to name a few). Seems that things are never quite as they seem I mean if you had asked me if by now who would be in the main event MVP or Miz a couple years ago I would have answered "Seriously? MVP no contest." but look where that went.

I groaned every time I saw him limp his broken-down body to the ring for a match.

Fox 10-05-2011 07:31 AM

It's too bad that Khali never really accomplished anything in the WWE. Yes, I know he was World Heavyweight Champion, but really, who respects that reign he had?

A guy as big as he is should've been built and maintained as a monster. Instead he was more or less cannon fodder for Batista and others, and is/was a mid-card comedy act.

Onto the next big man, Vince.

Rammsteinmad 10-05-2011 10:05 AM

Remember when he debut, and he pinned the Undertaker with a foot on his chest?!!!

From THAT to three-minute squash matches... :lol:

Fuck about time, let's celebrate:

Ermaximus 10-05-2011 10:58 AM

I'd say it's more of a, will anyone even notice he's gone really?

The Jayman 10-05-2011 11:02 AM

He was Ermaximus' #1 guy

Ermaximus 10-05-2011 11:06 AM

Not hardly Jayman. My #1 guy was Christian. On my list, Khali was #35 or so.

The Jayman 10-05-2011 11:09 AM

Don't you lie to me. We all know the truth

JERRY 10-05-2011 11:13 AM

KHALI GREAT IN DREAMS ONLY IN REAL LIFE SACK OF TURDS

Ermaximus 10-05-2011 11:14 AM

JERRY gets it Jayman, so why don't you bro?

The Jayman 10-05-2011 11:16 AM

But JERRY dosn't know the real Ermax

Xero 10-05-2011 11:16 AM

Remember the last time he said he was leaving? Yeah, that worked out.

The Jayman 10-05-2011 11:17 AM

Didn't he leave to get his knees fixed? Yeah, that worked out

You're thinking of Mysterio.

FIRE REY MYSTERIO

Triple Naitch 10-05-2011 11:25 AM

I don't mind Khali, but it was depressing watching him limp to the ring every week.

He'll retire within a year or so. I don't see him, Taker, Kane, or even Big Show honestly having that many matches left in them.

Khali should have a leg made of Rey Mysterio.

Ermaximus 10-05-2011 12:13 PM

If Khali had a Mysterio leg, would that make Khali a quarter luchador?

Innovator 10-05-2011 12:18 PM

Khali is Scuzzlebutt?

jskinnyg 10-05-2011 12:39 PM

Mmmm, buh-bye!

XL 10-05-2011 01:20 PM

Whilst I won't miss him personally, I do kinda feel bad for Khali. Must suck to be so immobile at a relatively young age. That said, he's made a fortune because of his size...

Nightwing 10-05-2011 02:16 PM

He was still around?

He was brought in as an attraction to begin with really.

Xero 10-05-2011 02:52 PM

They should have pushed the fact that he killed a guy in the ring. Would have made him .3 times more over.

That's kinda what I was getting at.

Droford 10-05-2011 03:24 PM

I wish they'd have given him a Bollywood Bodhan gimmick

Droford 10-05-2011 03:25 PM

take that back..dont actually wish they had..

addy2hotty 10-05-2011 04:25 PM

In honour of this news, it's time for a 'Khali Says' moment:-

KHALI EAT ALL MEN BEAT HIM SELF TO YOU! RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!

Domestically, no. But pretty much all of South Asia will notice.

I expected Khali to fail and be released within a few months of his debut. He may not have done much in our eyes but I think many people underrate his star power in India and surrounding countries. He has more mainstream star power there than John Cena has in North America.

Because of his international star power, I always thought Khali had a safe job with WWE, so I'm thinking this is more Khali's decision than it is WWE's.

LewisTheTruest 10-05-2011 06:31 PM

He was ok for a bit but when his knees were shot and he was put into the nice guy role he sucked.

As for acting?.....

Nuff said. Good riddance.

That's a shame.

Triple Naitch 10-05-2011 07:46 PM

Khali will probably still be friendly with WWE for the movie roles and do some ambassador work in India for them.

Rollermacka 10-05-2011 07:59 PM

Next TNA world champion. We will finally get to see that Abyss vs Great Khali match we've all been dreaming of :y:
