India's former WWE superstar - Dalip Singh Rana, popularly known as the Great Khali, has been badly injured during an exhibition wrestling match played in Haldwani in Uttarakhand on Wednesday. In the series of matches that was reportedly titled 'The Great Khali Returns Series', Khali was seen being allegedly attacked by a few foreign wrestlers. Images showed Khali being wounded on the head and taken on a stretcher after being injured.

Shockingly, during the the series launch event two days ago when the organisers named the participants and the announcing individuals earlier this week, the 43-year-old Khali lost his cool and apparently 'signed a death warrant' in public after tempers flared.

"People keep making these empty threats and useless statements everyday. If they have the guts they should stop talking and come and meet me in the ring and then we will see who is who. Just because we are Indians they think they are superior and can say and do whatever they want. They have not only challenged me but also the spirit of India and I am not going to let them win," an emotionally disturbed Khali is quoted as saying by a sports website.
