Johnny Knoxville's mouth got him into a pickle Monday night. The "Jackass" star was dished up some WWE-style punishment from some of their superstars.

Knoxville is used to abuse; he's been gored by a bull; tasered in the family jewels and even had an eyebath of hot sauce, but now Knoxville's words got him into hot water with a 7-foot 3 inch tall WWE Superstar, The Great Khali.
The trouble started when Knoxville, a big wrestling fan, invited the former World Heavyweight Champion onto the October 3 edition of his Jackassworld.com chat show, "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer."
After repeatedly needling the increasingly agitated giant about his size, he asked Khali if his “tallywacker” (exact words), matched his towering height.
The situation escalated when a clip of this interview was aired before The Great Khali’s match on USA Network’s October 6 edition of Monday Night RAW, making the India-born wrestler and movie star challenge Knoxville to leap into the ring to learn a little about what true “entertainment” is.
The Great Khali met up with Knoxville in Anaheim’s Honda Center for the October 13 edition of Monday Night RAW on USA Network.
Knoxville came down to the ring to explain himself. Once he got on the mic, he managed to catch a beating from WWE Diva Beth Phoenix and the leprechaun Hornswaggle!
Afterwards, the Great Khali himself came out to teach Knoxville the true meaning of “entertainment” as he slammed him to the mat.
