#1 When Jinder Mahal expects to return
Trending
After mostly competing in matches on Main Event between January-April 2019, Jinder Mahal became an integral part of the 24/7 Championship picture after the title was introduced to WWE programming by Hall of Famer Mick Foley in May.
Mahal traded victories with R-Truth in unique locations, including on a golf course and an airplane, but the one-time WWE Champion's return to the spotlight turned out to be short-lived after he suffered a serious knee injury during a June live event against Ali.
Speaking to Fan Buzz this week, "The Modern Day Maharajah" confirmed that he will not be able to make his in-ring return until "the new year at the earliest", despite being one of the few injured Superstars to be drafted in the recent roster changes.
The former 3MB member moved to SmackDown in the 2019 Superstar Shake-Up earlier this year. However, he will return to RAW when he makes his comeback in 2020, having been chosen as the #18 pick in the fourth round of the draft in October.
Interestingly, although he is currently injured, Mahal was chosen by the red brand ahead of names including Samoa Joe, The Miz, King Corbin and Rey Mysterio.
Now you can rate Crown Jewel and SmackDown matches on Sportskeeda!
