The Great Khali Gives His Perspective On Debate Of Wrestling Being Fake Or Real

ByAnutosh BajpaiProfessional Wrestling Journalist

The Great Khali is not interested in engaging in debates of wrestling being fake or real and he believes that if you\’re a fan you should ignore others and just enjoy the sport.

The Punjabi Playboy recently sat down with RJ Rohan for an interview. He discussed topics such as if he misses the life of WWE, his new restaurant in Punjab, and more.

When asked about the constant debate about wrestling being fake vs real, Khali said that it all depends on your own mindset. He explained that wrestlers have to train for years and they go through many hardships. If someone still calls it fake, you should ignore them and enjoy the sport:

\”What do you think? I believe it is as you think it is. If you think it\’s fake then it\’s fake. It\’s fake for you but for me it\’s real. If you think it\’s fake then I\’m saying it\’s fake. See you have to spend many years on this. You have to spend a lot of time; a lot of injuries happen. It\’s the toughest game. I say it\’s alright if people still think it\’s fake, just enjoy it.\

I Can\’t Change Your Perspective: The Great Khali

The former World Heavyweight Champion mentioned how it\’s fruitless to try to convince someone that wrestling is real. He explained that wrestling is one of the most popular sports in the world watched by millions.

Even if you think it\’s fake, you should leave the wrestlers who make their livelihood from it and fans who enjoy it alone. He also joked that anyone who is still not convinced can get into the ring with any of his CWE wrestlers and find out:

\”If you think it\’s fake then I can\’t change your perspective. I have CWE. My wrestler will come and powerbomb you four times. He\’ll give you a tombstone like Undertaker. If you still get up it\’s fake, if you stay down then it\’s real. It\’s simple.\

Continental Wrestling Entertainment or CWE is a wrestling school and independent promotion in Punjab, India which was founded by the WWE alumnus in 2015 after he returned from America.

The former WWE star has also gotten into politics and acting since returning to his home country. He has starred in a number of Bollywood and regional movies since retiring from active competition.
