6 Ups & 3 Downs From Last Night's WWE SmackDown (Nov 28)

Singh Bros Jinder Mahal

As torturous as Jinder Mahal's main event run has been, The Singh Brothers have been consistently great throughout.

They're no more than a couple of henchmen, and it's unlikely that they'll ever be pushed as a tag team, but Sunil and Samir are extremely effective. Their constant interferences, crazy bumps, and blatant disregard for their own health and safety are easily the most compelling part of 'The Maharaja's' act, and without them, the former WWE Champion would be even more lost than he already is.

Last night saw the duo face AJ Styles in handicap action, and it went predictably poorly. They were able to gang up on the champ a couple of times, but inevitably fell to the consensus best wrestler in the company, who finished it off with a top rope Styles Clash that planted one Singh onto another.

An enraged Mahal hit both with his Khallas finisher in the aftermath, but botched his second attempt, almost killing Samir with a sheer head drop in the process. Such sloppiness is what we've come to expect from 'The Maharaja', but his goons did a good job against AJ regardless.
