8 biggest overachievers on the current WWE roster

#7. Jinder Mahal

Jinder Mahal

Jinder Mahal doesn't have nearly as many accomplishments as Sheamus has in WWE, but his 2017 run alone makes him a valid entry for this list. For the longest time before his WWE release, Jinder Mahal was a classic enhancement talent. Even when he returned, that was the role he resumed, up until WrestleMania 33 ended and he moved to SmackDown.

On the blue brand, Mahal would go from enhancement to main event talent in a week, shocking the world by becoming the #1 contender to then-WWE Champion Randy Orton.

While he was looked at as a filler opponent for Orton, he would turn the WWE Universe upside down by beating The Viper to become WWE Champion - only a month after he was an enhancement talent on the low card.

He would have successful title defenses against Orton and Shinsuke Nakamura before losing the title to AJ Styles in Manchester. Mahal went on to win the United States Championship at WrestleMania 34 in 2018 and went back to being an enhancement talent. There's no denying that Mahal's WWE title run makes him an overachiever.
