In his prime, Killer Khan made a strong impression with amazing fights against big names in wrestling like Andre Giant and WWE champion Hulk Hogan. Directed by famous “classy” Freddie Blassie and Harry Masayoshi Fujiwara, also known as “Mr. Khan, his career proved how talented and tough he was in the ring.

Khan’s trip took him to Sacramento’s Arco Arena in 1987 for two exciting games. First, a group match with Raymond Constantine “Hercules” Fernandez was against Billy Jack Haynes and Ken Patera at the WWF House Show on June 30. Even though they tried hard, Khan and Fernandez lost in both meetings.

Killer Khan was not stopped. He came back to Sacramento later that year for a one-on-one fight against James “Hillbilly Jim” Morris in September. This time, Khan won. He showed toughness and talent that marked his wrestling activities.

Khan wrestled for 16 years, and when he retired in 1987, it was the start of a new part of his life. Beyond the squared circle, Killer Khan went into business, music and acting. His life after wrestling showed the many skills that lots of fighters have. It also revealed a side to him beyond moves like suplexes and body slams.
