A released WWE Superstar has shown off his impressive physique today on social media. The company is currently building toward WWE SummerSlam 2024 on August 3.
Former WWE Champion Jinder Mahal was let go by the company earlier this year. His last match with the promotion was the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal on the SmackDown before WrestleMania XL and Bronson Reed emerged victorious. Following his release, Mahal changed his ring name to Raj Dhesi and will be in action later this month alongside AEW star Satnam Singh. Mahal took to his Instagram today to show off his impressive physique with a new workout video and you can check it out in his post below.

Vince Russo reacts to Jinder Mahal's departure from WWE
Wrestling veteran Vince Russo has shared his thoughts on the company letting Jinder Mahal go and said he has witnessed stars lose their jobs for minor issues in the past.
Speaking on an episode of Sportskeeda's The Wrestling Outlaws show, the veteran speculated that one person's opinion could have led to the company moving on from Mahal. Russo added that all it takes is one person and that is what is unfortunate about the professional wrestling industry:
"If somebody's got it out for you, and that's the thing, your career is in the hands of these people. Bro, somebody could have not liked Jinder Mahal because he was of Indian descent. You don't know that. You just don't know. All it takes is one person, and, bro, that's the thing that s*cks about professional wrestling," said Russo. [5:28 – 5:53]
Jinder Mahal defeated Randy Orton at Backlash 2017 to capture the WWE Championship. He held the title for an impressive 170 days before he lost it to AJ Styles. Only time will tell what the future holds for The Modern Day Maharaja in the world of professional wrestling.
