As per the earlier reports, WWE scheduled two live events from the Raw brand at the end of this year. On the second week of December, the Raw roster will be visiting the city of Delhi to perform here. The company hosted two such house shows, last year and they will be back within a year. No official announcement was made from WWE, till date.
In order to do the same, the 14-time world champion, Triple H arrived in the city of Mumbai, last night.
Transitioning from his role of a bonafide WWE Superstar, he has turned into the WWE Executive Vice President of Talent, Live Events and Creative. So, he will officially launch WWE’s tour in India in December.
The Cerebral Assassin was quite excited to visit the country. He received warm greetings after landing at the Mumbai Airport. So, he took his Twitter handle to quote the following:
‘Landed in Mumbai and was warmly greeted. A beautiful country with wonderful cultures, excited for my visit. @WWEIndia’
