Jinder Mahal has been the reigning WWE Champion ever since he defeated Randy Orton to win the title a few months ago at Backlash, and he’s currently set to defend the belt against Shinsuke Nakamura at Hell in a Cell next month.
Mahal made his way to the ring to cut a promo on this week’s episode of SmackDown Live, and during the promo the WWE Champion referred to Shinsuke Nakamura as “Mr. Miyagi” and it didn’t go over very well because the crowd responded to Jinder by chanting “that’s too far” after he made the comment.
PWInsider reports that there was a lot of backstage talk about the “that’s too far” chant during Jinder’s promo, and it’s also worth noting that WWE has not posted a video clip of the segment to YouTube as of this writing.
The poor attendance for last night’s episode was also a hot topic as the arena was only 30-40% full.
As noted, Jinder Mahal will be defending his title against Nakamura at Hell in a Cell last month, and you can check out the updated card for the pay-per-view below.
