This past week was highlighted by the WWE Backlash pay-per-view and as we now know, Jinder Mahal made history on that night, winning his very first WWE Championship. In fact, that win represents the first title Jinder has won in the WWE at all.
Female superstar says she inspired John Cena turning heel HERE
It was some 7 years ago that Jinder Mahal first signed with the WWE. His career has been full of ups and downs, mostly downs, but now it seems as if it was all worth it. After all this Superstar has been through, he deserves this accomplishment.
As a WWE fan who welcomes and embraces change, I can only hope Jinder Mahal is the champion for some time to come.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
