Cricket
The last one had to be bigger than Bollywood and in India if there is something that surpasses Bollywood it has to be cricket.
Though the sport is confined to the commonwealth nations, the Indians see it as some sort of religion without which they can’t live. So bringing in a famous Indian cricketer to host or even put on one appearance as a celebrity wrestler will work well for the company in terms of publicity in the nation.
Imagine Sachin Tendulkar doing such things, Tendulkar going against Vince McMahon in some sort of a gimmick match and many possibilities that follow. This is going to help WWE reach the deepest corners of India as the fans are so crazed about cricket that even if they forget their son’s name they won’t forget If Sachin makes an appearance on WWE.
With such a plethora of options at their disposal the WWE is still stuck with Khali hoping that a miracle would happen and he would start flying around turnbuckles all of a sudden. It might be the time to rethink about that hope and start putting in efforts if they are to benefit from this rich country.
