The Reason Khali Was Moved To Raw(Mania Spoiler?)

[MGH]

I just listened to Scherer's latest news hotline, and this is what was said:


Khali was moved to Raw in response to HHH's injury, but not to fill the hole left by him. The plan was indeed for the DX v RKO feud to continue a little longer, and Khali was going to be moved over, but not this soon.

With Big Show looking less and less likely to be able to go at Mania, Khali is now the leading candidate to face Hulk Hogan at Mania. Vince really wants to play off of Wrestlemania 3 with Hogan vs a giant, and now Khali appears to be that man.

Khali was moved to Raw to get more exposure in preparation for the Hogan match. Big Show may still return for this, but with it looking less likely it is now Khali vs Hogan at Mania.

According to people backstage, Diavari will soon be on Smackdown as a cruiserweight.

Hogan vs Khali = Bad
Daivari on Smackdown as a cruiserweight = Good

[Hiroshi Hase]

I'm not sure if I should be happy or horrified.

[Jew4Bacon]

Davairi By Himself Meh, he needs a Star to Carry him

[heffer111]

whoa


thats weird that i just predicted this match at wresltmania, like 5 seconds earlier in my other thread

[starking18]

If this is the plan, then I am fine with it. Hogan always seems to be matched vs. unbeatable "giants" so its appropriate. It will be a glorified mid-card exhibition and nothing more.

[Sajoa Moe]

But if Khali can't fall down or even bend his knees, how is he going to take a leg drop?

[manx21]

as long as khali is out of the main event i'm happy

[MGH]

I think it goes without saying Hogan is going over, right? Is that even a question?

[manx21]

if hogan wont lay down for austin or michaels he sure as hell wont lay down for khali

Hogan is going to do a flying leg lariat across the throat instead. Hulksters got those kind of ups.

[brutuscheesecake]

Sounds plausible, though I really wish Vince didn't try to re create WM 3.


so when does Khali join up with Bobby Heenan and start wearing the single strap leotard?

Khali is also about 2 inches taller than Andre, and Hogan is like 52-53. They only get one shot at it...I don't think Hulk will be able to pull off a decent looking slam on him.

This match will be a workrate classic.

[Zen411]

Worst Match Ever.

I'm getting flashbacks of Hogan vs Zeus and Zeus slamming his arms down on Hogan's back as he tried to enter the cage against the Bossman.

Bring in Beefcake to tag with Hogan and Macho King to tag with Khali and we have a match.

[Cactus Jack]

Hogan/Khali will suck.

[spec]

Hogan vs. Khali?

[Chainsaw]

It's pretty bad when a match that may or may not happen for the next 3 months is already off-the-books bad.

But, at least we're spared the idea of Khali as Extreme Velocity champ.

Another case of a "internet journalist" trying to cover his ass after stating incorrect information. Last week at this time he was reporting Khali vs Lashley. I wonder where they get their info from? I wouldnt be surprised if they just entirely make it up based on educated guesses.

Well, the wwe pretty much changes things every week so i'll give him that.
