The Great Khali had a backstage segment on Smackdown during his prime days in the Ruthless Aggression Era where he sent a warning to Batista and Rey Mysterio. In the segment, Khali was asked by his manager Dilip Singh about how he would go about his business against the duo. The world champion displayed his brute strength to explain the execution.
Back then, The Great Khali was the World Heavyweight Champion. After winning the Battle Royal, Khali had become the most aggressive version of himself. He sent a massive warning to his rivals at the time, Rey and Batista. When Dilip asked Khali to display the way in which he would decimate his opponents, Khali showed the way of his execution.

Dilip handed Khali a musk melon upon which the mask of Rey Mysterio was covered. Khali grabbed the melon and crushed it to pieces with his strong arms. As the segment took place and the video was displayed on the big screens, the fans were in shock and chanted "Ohh". They were terrified by the way Khali warned the former world champion.
The Great Khali's warning to Batista
The tall wrestler threw a bigger challenge to Batista. When Dilip asked the way Khali would crush the former Evolution member, the WWE Hall of Famer explained it by flaunting his power. Khali was given a watermelon which was described as the skull of Batista. The former world champion crushed it and claimed to destroy Dave Bautista in a similar way.
The fans were terrified by the warning from the Indian wrestler. What followed in the following weeks was the world champion living up to his expectations. The segment has gone viral on X, Instagram, and other social media platforms. The fans claimed that the title reign of Khali was a bit underrated and felt he worked great as a heel which went unnoticed.
