Gurjit Singh Hans (born March 7, 1973) is an Indo-Canadian professional wrestler, best known for his time in the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) under the ring name Tiger Ali Singh. He is the son of wrestler Tiger Jeet Singh.

Singh trained to be a wrestler in the New Japan Pro Wrestling dojo for six months. He spent time with Sweet Daddy Siki and Ron Hutchinson at Sully's Gym in Toronto, and learned kickboxing in Bangkok, Thailand. Upon completing his training, Singh made his in-ring debut as he teamed with his father, Tiger Jeet Singh, against Atsushi Onita and Tarzan Goto in Frontier Martial-Arts Wrestling (FMW).

Singh signed with the World Wrestling Federation in January 1997, with the signing announced at a press conference at SkyDome in Toronto. Singh's most notable accomplishment in the company occurred in 1997, when he won the second WWF Kuwait Cup Tournament, held on April 9, 1997 in Kuwait City. He defeated Owen Hart in the finals to become the second and final WWF Kuwait Cup winner. He would also participate and be managed by his father at the WWF's United Kingdom-exclusive pay-per-view event One Night Only on September 20, 1997, facing off against and defeating Leif Cassidy.

He made his official WWF debut on the April 21, 1997 episode of Raw. He would disappear from WWF television until they had fully submerged into the Attitude Era. His gimmick was that of a rich and arrogant heir to a fortune (similar to Ted DiBiase's character). He came to the ring accompanied by a manservant named Babu, and would pay random people in the audience each week to perform humiliating stunts.
