There is a belief that being big will make you a star in WWE, and The Great Khali can certainly attest to that.

Hailing from India, the 7-footer was a true spectacle to behold, with the giant capturing the World Heavyweight Championship in 2007, after the title was vacated by the injured Edge.

Unfortunately, all of Khali's size and monster shrieks could not make up for the fact that he couldn't wrestle.

That doesn't mean he didn't try, lord knows he did, but due to his proportions, Khali's body could simply not function as a wrestler's body should.

Being lambasted by fans, those in attendance and those at home, Khali's sole reign came to an end months later, and the WWE quickly swept any future pushes for the 7-footer firmly under the rug.
