Jinder Mahal Responds To Fans Who Call Him The Worst WWE Champion Of All Time

Most wrestlers aspire to become WWE Champion, and in 2017 Jinder Mahal reached the top of the mountain when he defeated Randy Orton to win the prestigious title for the first time in his career.

Jinder Mahal received some backlash from fans while he was holding the title, and there are people out there who still criticize WWE’s decision to give Jinder the belt. During a recent interview with Give Me Sport the backlash was discussed by Mahal who addressed fans who think of him as the worst champion of all time.

“While I was WWE Champion, I was called the the experiment, the unworthy champion, the worst champion of all time. So this is just people downplaying my accomplishments. WWE Universe in India, their TV deals everything, were just as much in play when I was in 3MB and while I was released I do believe WWE Raw was the live on Sony. When I was brought back who still write live on Sony.

I wasn’t brought back to become WWE Champion, at that time they separated the rosters again, Raw and SmackDown, and they just needed some people who were TV-ready essentially to throw on and maybe highlight some of the newer talent, but somewhere along the line I knew ‘Hey this is my way in. This is my foot in the door. I’m going to knock the whole door down and I’m going to become WWE Champion.'”

Jinder Mahal will face Drew McIntyre at the SummerSlam pay-per-view on Saturday, August 21st. Stay tuned for updates.
