Khali accepts challenge from Pakistani wrestler

**WWE’s Indian import ‘The Great Khali’ has been challenged for fight by Pakistani wrestler Bashir Bhola, which the US-based superstar has promptly accepted.
**
Khali, the over seven-feet tall grand slam attraction, said from the United States that he would like to see Pakistan and India wrestling matches.

Bashir, a scion of the famous Gama family of wrestlers in Punjab, put out the challenge to Khali after winning the Sher-e-Punjab title last month in which the best wrestlers from the country participated.

**“I want to fight Khali anywhere he wants. I am ready to go to America or England and even India if he is ready to fight me. This is my challenge to him,” Bashir said after the title win in Lahore.
**
Talking to a private channel, Khali said he had no problem accepting a challenge from anyone if he was worth his salt.

“I would first advise the Pakistani wrestler to go and first fight my brothers in India and then think about me But if he is so keen he can come anytime and fight me in the states or anywhere in the world,” Khali said.

He said if Bashir wanted to fight free style he can come to the WWE and if he wanted a desi style wrestling he should look at India.

Re: Khali accepts challenge from Pakistani wrestler

WWE will book a one-way ticket, put the contract in front of him, make him sign it, agree to come to terms for a large sum of money and have both of these two fight it out in the wrestling ring at next year's Wrestlemania (this is Vince McMahon thinking).

But this is probably not going to happen. Khali is a marketable income for WWE for not only diversifying the international rasslin' business in the US but also a big promoter of WWE in India, as was his recent visit when he went two months ago. He is under contract to WWE and I do not believe they will let him participate in this fight at all. This will damage WWE's India-based cash cow which Khali brings and they do not want that to happen.
