Hey, did you know that Jinder Mahal is a former WWE Champion. Hi, he's Jinder Mahal and he used to be WWE Champion. Jinder Mahal was WWE Champ. Jinder Mahal was WWE Champ. Jinder Mahal was WWE Champ. Jinder Mahal was WWE Champ. Jinder Mahal was WWE Champ. Jinder Mahal was WWE Champ. Jinder Mahal was WWE Champ.

Jinder Mahal was also jobbed out on this week's SmackDown.

The former World Champ returning and reminding everyone of past glories then being squashed flat by Braun Strowman was weak. It kinda made the big belt look sh*t too. Can anyone imagine most other WWE Champions from the past or present doing this sort of thing?

It doesn't make sense that WWE would go out of their own way to remind folks that Mahal held one of the titles Roman Reigns carries around if they're only gonna job him out in jig time. This was so counterproductive, man.
