Pakistani Wrestler Badshah Pehlwan steals the show in first ever international wrestling event

KARACHI: Pakistan’s only icon in professional wrestling circuit Badshah Pehlwan Khan outwrestled former WWC Universal Heavyweight Champion Carlito after a tough battle to steal the show on first-ever professional wrestling event in Pakistan.

It took Badshah over 15 minutes to overpower his opponent, the WWE star, showcasing the skills and power, in and outside the ring.

Khan received applause from the local crowd, who made loud cheer as soon the referee, another former WWE star, Wade Barrett announced him as the winner.

But Badshah’s victory wasn’t the only reason for the crowd to cheer out loudly as the local star was attacked by Carlito while he was celebrating.

Carlito’s nonsporting behaviour angered “Bad News” Barrett and, subsequently, the Puerto Rican professional wrestler received a solid punch from Wade.
