In order to become WWE Champion, you need to impress Vince McMahon, and McMahon is what’s known as a “body guy.” Vince likes to push bigger wrestlers, and Jinder fits the bill because he’s absolutely ripped. People have taken notice of Jinder’s physique and he told ESPN that his confidence level has gone way up.

“When I train hard, I look better,” he said. “I see the way I look on TV or in the mirror, and it gives me confidence. It translates into the ring. I have more confidence and can be more aggressive. If you saw me from a few years ago, the confidence level is night and day, and that’s because of the way I look.”

Mahal has insisted several times that his body is all natural, but some people don’t want to believe him. However, Jinder Mahal says he’s never failed one test.

“I’ve been tested plenty, and never failed one,” Mahal said.

Vince McMahon is clearly behind Jinder Mahal, and he thinks that all the hard work he put in is what made Vince take notice.

“I know Vince [McMahon] appreciates wrestlers taking initiative, putting in the hard work,” Mahal said. “He had confidence in me. He knew I would embrace the opportunity, and not let WWE down. I think I have been proving that in my matches ever since.”
