WWE put on a special show for Indian fans in January to celebrate Republic Day. One has to assume that there are bigger plans for the stars in the list, beyond an annual appearance at Superstar Spectacle. With The Great Khali returning to WWE to be inducted into the Hall of Fame, could we see him leading an Indian faction into battle?
Giant Zanjeer and Dilsher Shanky are two humongous men who could certainly fit snugly into such a faction. So could Indus Sher, Jinder Mahal, and even the Singh Brothers, making quite a formidable team. India is clearly an important market for WWE, as The Great Khali's induction proves, meaning that this could be a plan in the works.

IMPACT tried to capture the Indian market with the Desi Hit Squad, but with all due respect, WWE's reach is significantly bigger. Plus, Jinder Mahal has a bone to pick with Drew McIntyre, so this is certainly a road that the company can go down.
