Seth Rollins Retains, Jinder Mahal Reacts – Jinder Mahal’s return to the WWE spotlight in the early weeks of 2024 has stirred considerable attention. After a memorable confrontation with The Rock at WWE Raw Day One and a subsequent challenge to WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, Mahal’s match on the January 15 episode of Raw marked a significant moment in his recent career.
Accompanied by Veer Mahaan and Sanga, Mahal faced Rollins in a bout filled with interference and near-misses. During the match, Señor Money in the Bank Damian Priest appeared, teasing a potential cash-in, only to be interrupted by Drew McIntyre, leading to a brawl between the two. Despite the chaos, Rollins ultimately secured the victory, successfully defending his title.
In a post-match tweet, Mahal addressed the rumors of extra pyrotechnics for Raw, humorously noting, “So much for sending that extra Pyro for my Punjabi Celebration.”
The discourse around Jinder Mahal intensified last week, as AEW CEO Tony Khan brought attention to a perceived double standard in fan reactions. Khan highlighted the contrast between fans’ reactions to HOOK challenging AEW World Champion Samoa Joe and Mahal’s title shot, sparking discussions in the wrestling community about fan perceptions and expectations.
