26 WTF Moments From WWE Attitude Era Raw 1998 (Feb 2)

6. Tiger Ali Singh. Remember Him?

A promo then airs hyping up Tiger Ali Singh, and if you don't remember him, his gimmick was of a wealthy Arab man, who is shown in this segment arriving on what appears to be a golf course in a helicopter. He calls himself "the next Asian Arnold Schwarzenegger or Sylvester Stallone", as Kevin Kelly's narration desperately tries to build him up as the next big thing. He's shown doing more rich guy stuff and ends up declaring, "I am the true messiah". In reality, Singh did very little memorable or substantial during his WWE run, and ended up suing them for both an injury he sustained and racial abuse he reportedly suffered backstage from other wrestlers.
