6 Most Insane Things Happening In Wrestling Right Now (Nov 10)

2. JINDER MAHAL IS NO LONGER WWE CHAMPION

At Tuesday's SmackDown taping, it finally happened. Jinder Mahal - the man who reduced the WWE Heavyweight Championship to a prop, and could barely even use it to stand up straight in his botch-ridden, rest hold-heavy matches - finally lost it in a match carried by the phenomenal talent of the phenomenal AJ Styles.

The timing of this welcome development is...odd. WWE has wasted weeks' worth of TV time building to Mahal Vs. Brock Lesnar - that is, if you count Paul Heyman laughing in disbelief at Mahal's challenge as an actual storyline. Now, unless the result is retconned this Tuesday, we will bear witness to a genuine electrified dream match in Houston. We no longer have a problem. With this revision, and the teased prospect of the New Day Vs. The Shield on RAW, Survivor Series 2017 might just become the best card WWE has promoted all year.

This is why the critics cannot help but return to the bosom.

When this company stops indulging itself and gives half a sh*t, it is capable of greatness - until Mahal inevitably wins the title back in India, and goes on to lose it to John Cena at WrestleMania, at which point we can wallow once more in the natural scheme of things.
