WWE News: Stone Cold Gave His Opinion On The New WWE Champion Jinder Mahal

Jinder Mahal whose real name is Yuvraj Singh Dhesi has shocked the world by dethroning the former WWE Champion Randy Orton at the Backlash PPV.

He became the overall 50th superstar to hold the most prestigious belt in all of the sports entertainment. Also, he is the second superstar from India who held the WWE championship following The Great Khali’s reign in the year 2007.

The process of crowning him with the championship came as an abrupt decision to the company making him the first-ever WWE champion without any official merchandise available.

On the WWEShop.com, there was no exclusive t-shirt or accessories available on the name of Jinder Mahal, until now.

Last night, WWE came up with a brand new apparel for the prime title holder in the company. The t-shirt is printed “The Modern day Maharaja” on it with a symbolic elephant on it. Since, WWE has launched the WWE merchandise stores in Mumbai, India, it will be available in Jinder’s home country, as well. The shirt is available for $24.99 i.e. Rs. 1737 in India.

Meanwhile, the new champion is taking the pro-wrestling world by storm with everybody giving an opinion on his shocking title reign. In recent memory, we can’t remember such a title change which shook the industry, so much. After all, that’s what WWE wanted to make the brand expanded in India.

The wrestling legend, Stone Cold Steve Austin has also given his thought about Jinder Mahal on his latest podcast episode. He said that the Maharaja has all the tools to be successful. The fact that the company has faith on him indicates that he is over-delivering on his expectations. Check out his full comments here:

“He’s got a great look, a great body. oh, dude, [the ‘Maharaja’ nickname] has cool factor written all over it. Plus, if you play that with arrogance, it works for you. But, dude, down the road, I think that it spells money. I think the kid [has] got a great look. Like [Helms] said, he’s got the great facials…

you’ve got to bring a few things to the table, whether it’s appearance or size, looks, handsome, ugly, are you a flat-out bad ass worker, just unbelievable talker? This kid has bits and pieces of the things [one needs to be successful]. And all of these things can be graded on a scale of one to 10 on what you’re bringing to the table. But, at first, one of the big things you’ve got to bring, dude, for Vince to get in that big spot, size helps and it just does.”

At this time, Jinder Mahal is scheduled for his first title defence at the next Smackdown-exclusive PPV, Money in the Bank. The event is scheduled on June 18th from St. Louis, Missouri.
