Puneri Paltan have been in a good form in the ongoing season of the Pro Kabaddi League. Currently, they are sitting in the second spot with 69 points in 19 matches. However, in their last match against Gujarat Giants, they suffered a 39-51 loss at Gachibowli Indoor Stadium. Puneri Paltan skipper, Iranian Fazel Atrachali had a good game.
But, he failed to guide his team to victory. Currently, he is the league's most successful defender by far. Before this season, he became the most expensive defender and overseas player in this league. The Pune franchise spent Rs 1.38 crore to acquire the services of this Iranian defender. Now, a video has gone viral from that match where fans have started to compare him with the former WWE Superstar Goldberg.
Here is the shared video:

Fazel Atrachali surpassed Anup Kumar this season to become the most successful skipper in Pro Kabaddi League
Speaking of the video, the incident took place during the first half of the clash between Puneri Paltan and Gujarat Giants. Gujarat Giants raider Chandran Ranjit came to raid from the left flank and he moved around swiftly looking for a point. But, Atrachali was aware of the whole situation. When the raider came close to him, he just speared him and took him onto the ground.
The video went viral as his ‘spear’ reminds fans about the former WWE superstar Goldberg. ‘Spear’ was the best finisher move for the wrestler during his playing days. Goldberg was the only man in history to have been the WCW World Heavyweight Champion, WWE World Heavyweight Champion, and WWE Universal Champion. However, Fazel Atrachali registered his 53rd win as a captain in the Pro Kabaddi League history this season. He surpassed Anup Kumar to become the most successful skipper.
Now, Puneri Paltan will be in action again on 3 December 2022 at Gachibowli Indoor Stadium. Fazel Atrachali will look to win this upcoming match to strengthen his team’s position on the table.
