    Good read.I didn't know much about khali's pre-WWE career.Interesting to know that it was Dorian Yates who inspired him to wrestle.
    When he was not working, women in his village of Dhirana would often call him to do what they call heavy duty work: lifting cattle from one barn to another.
    :eek:

    "enjoys top billing in the famous American showbiz circus alongside fighters such as Hulk Hogan and The Rock. "

    Definitely not written by an up-to-date fan anyhows.

    FFS wrestling fan or not you'd think a journalist would be capable of a bit of research

    If the article was a wrestling article I would agree with you.I think the journalist was writing an article on Khali rather than wrestling.In a way its good that the journalist did not know much about wrestling because usually when they try to research it,they can't help but refer to steroids aswell
