Chris Candido vs. The Great Khali

Candido is a legend.

Kahli didn't look terrible in that match. I guess kudos to Candido for that.

:love:

That powerbomb was sick. When he got thrown off the top I thought he was going down to the floor.

Mymymy :p

how to make a shitty worker look good

by Chris Candido

Chris has some balls to be taking bumps like that from him.

Candido was the fucking man.

Khali looks a lot more muscular there than he does now.

Hmmmm.....

Corkscrewed 08-15-2006 03:15 AM

wtf... props to Candido, but Khali still displayed more skill there than in any WWE show. I mean, for one, those chops look a lot better than a stupid war chop to the head. :lol:

If they gave Khali some better opponents he could put on better matches. Sure he'd need to be mostly carried, but he's not there for his wrestling skill. His look is enough to create interest, so you just need to put him against someone who can hide his weaknesses.

Taker is not the man to do that.

You'd think he would be. After all, he does have 16 years experience of facing big, uncoordinated, talentless "monsters" who had the "look" that generates interest.

Kamala, Giant Gonzalez, Berzerker, Nailz, Mr Hughes, Yokozuna, Fake Undertaker, Kane (back when he was pretty poor in the ring), Mabel, King Kong Bundy, Kama.... the list goes on.... and on... and on....

Surely he must have picked up SOME tips by now???

NoJabbaNoBogRoll 08-15-2006 05:17 PM

You'd think so.

Cooler Tom Schuler 08-15-2006 05:51 PM

I love the video comments. Here's one about Undertaker.

...but he's become a regular person as of late riding a motorcycle to the ring? wtf is that?

Chavo Classic 08-15-2006 06:07 PM

Candido went out his way and totally put his body on the line to make Khali look good there. I guess this shows how excellent Candido was rather than how decent Khali can be.

NeanderCarl 08-15-2006 08:52 PM

A human bump machine like Candido can make any crappy two-move wrestler look good.

The Proof: Curt Hennig, Rick Rude, Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart, even Steve Austin before the neck injury....

Mr. Nerfect 08-15-2006 10:43 PM

I think they should turn The Great Khali face. He just seems more likeable when he's being himself. It's a lot easier to make money out of an unstoppable guy we are meant to like than an unstoppable guy who we are meant to hate.

The Great Khali should be working with guys who can bump, no doubt, but he can really improve as a big man wrestler by working with guys like Finlay and William Regal in the US Title scene. Have him turn on Daivari, beat him on SmackDown!, then go on to feud with King Booker and his Court, maybe even getting a short reign with the US Title.

NeanderCarl 08-16-2006 07:45 AM

I don't know. A guy Khali's size would have to have a really strong heel to feud with, otherwise he wouldn't work as a face. There's no drama in cheering an 8 ft monster who's almost guaranteed to win. Therefore, the fans would have to REALLY hate his opponent, just to get a reaction from them.
