It's hard to discount the obvious hard work Jinder Mahal put in with his physique last year. Transforming himself from enhancement talent into a guy WWE were interested in pushing, Mahal is a fine example of endeavour paying off. That doesn't mean he's taken seriously even when WWE Champion. It'll take more than one title reign for that.

Compare Jinder to Brock Lesnar and it's almost embarrassing. Lesnar has been with the company on and off since 2002, won countless major matches, is a four-time World Champion and won the 2002 King Of The Ring and the 2003 Royal Rumble. Outside WWE, he reached the pinnacle of the fighting game as a UFC Heavyweight Champion and broke box office records.

12 months ago, this would have been a squash match and nothing more. Now, WWE expect people to treat it like supreme athlete vs. supreme athlete. Mahal may have been WWE Champ since May, but he's not considered in the same league as Brock by fans.
