Dalip Singh was born in the village of Dhirana in the state of Himachal Pradesh in India.
Under the ring name “Giant Singh”, Dalip Singh became a pro wrestler for All Pro Wrestling before joining New Japan Pro Wrestling in 2001. In NJPW he formed a popular tag team with former WWE oddity The Giant Silva, becomming the tallest tag team in pro-wrestling history.
In January 2006 Singh was signed to a contract by WWE and assigned to the Deep South Wrestling developmental territory for training, before debuting on WWE television with Daivari by his side in April 2006.
Great Khali had a long running feud with the Undertaker during his time with the brand and also defeated the then World Champion Rey Mysterio in a non title match.
Khali was due to face the Undertaker to a Punjabi Prison Match at The Great American Bash. However Khali was taken off the road by the WWE due to liver disease and did not participate in that match. The pairs feud culminated in a last man standing match, which the Undertake defeated Khali, resulting in Khali’s first ever WWE defeat.
On August 29, 2006 it was reported that Khali will be out of action for several months due to surgery on both knees, however in October he and Daivari began appearing at ECW house shows before making their ECW TV debuts on the October 31st edition of ECW on Sci Fi.

The Great Khali appears to have limited wrestling ability, however ECW fans would surley like to see a Sandman vs Khali extreme rules match!
