ZeroSignal620 01/19/18 2:15:59 PM #495: | http://www.wrestlecrap.com/inductions/jinder-mahal-****er-2017/ (Just think failed turkey gimmick to figure out the censored part) Favorite lines include... - Jinder Mahal, who had never once wrestled for any WWE title. Jinder Mahal, who had never once won a match on pay-per-view. Jinder Mahal, who once tapped out to the Brooklyn Brawler. Jinder Mahal, whose career highlight to that point was being ringside for the WeeLC match. Jinder Mahal becoming WWE Champion in 2017, or any other year, was unthinkable. - Thanks to extensive interference by the Bollywood Boys (now known as the Singh Brothers), which hilariously sidetracked Randy Orton, Jinder surprised Randy with his new finisher, the Khallas, to make history as only the 6th Canadian to win the WWE championship. And how did the live audience react to the new champion? After WWE pulled the cameras off one guy laughing, we saw that the WWE Universe was in absolute shock. - It was time for a champion who could connect with the 1.3 billion people of India. True, John Cena could speak a little Punjabi, but he wasnt wrestling full-time anymore, so it was up to Jinder to drive up WWE Network subscriptions in India. And the WWE Network was the only place those 1.3 billion Indians could watch Mahal defend his title against Randy Orton at Money in the Bank except for on free TV, where all of WWEs so-called pay-per-views also aired in India. - At MITB, Jinder defeated Randy Orton again, surviving an RKO thanks to the blatant interference of the Singh Brothers, whom Randy Orton tossed around like rag dolls for four minutes. This ungodly delay allowed Jinder to recover and hit the Khallas to beat Orton in his hometown in front of his dad on Fathers Day. Thats how hard WWE was pushing for Jinder to be its next international star, domestic audience be damned. - By this point, Jinder had been champion for four and a half months and looked to be so until at least the end of the year. This, despite Mahal never having established any real character and garnering only apathy on the mic as well as in the ring. In his promos, all we learned was that Jinder spoke Punjabi, liked India, and didnt much care for American crowds. Fans may have initially balked at Bradshaw getting a main event push in 2004, but after one promo, they could at least tell you what the JBL character was. - Months after thirteen-time world champion Randy Orton jobbed on three consecutive pay-per-views to initially put over Mahal, Triple H couldnt be bothered to let the hometown kid get a single non-televised win over him. Jeez, even Hulk Hogan would (and did) put over Jacques Rougeau in Montreal if he paid him enough. But hey, The Game had to stay looking strong for all those future India tours hed work in the coming decades. --- Formerly known as Raven 2 http://card.psnprofiles.com/1/ZeroSignal620.png ...
