For those who might not be aware, The Great Khali and John Cena share a rich history from Khali's time in the Stamford-based promotion.

These instances stand out as meaningful moments where Khali and Cena shared the spotlight in WWE. Both the stars also competed against each other during The Punjabi Playboy's early days in the company. Considering WWE's return to India after a six-year hiatus, the possibility of the Indian legend's involvement in the event seems highly plausible.

Collaborating with none other than John Cena, the WWE Hall of Famer could make for a captivating segment especially given that the setting of the show is in India. The return of The Great Khali, combined with John Cena's presence, has the potential to create a memorable and heartwarming moment for both the WWE Universe and Indian fans alike.
