Grooming The Great Khali

While they’re taking their sweet, slow time about it, it’s clear WWE is grooming The Great Khali to become a legit giant in the tradition of Andre the Giant. That’s a trick they never quite got right with The Big Show.

The main problem right now with The Great Khali is that he’s so large – a legit 7’2″, 420 pounds – that building him up makes his matches a bit boring, because they’re all squashes. How many times can we see Khali absolutely destroy Super Crazy and Carlito before it becomes a joke that the man’s not a number-one contender for a WWE title?

But at least he’s being promoted the right way, unlike Umaga. Umaga is way heavier than Khali, without being anywhere near seven feet tall. Seriously, Umaga should do a diet comparison and work out with Khali. Drop about 60 pounds and Umaga might just be as fearsome as he’s being promoted as being.
