During a recent appearance at Monopoly Events’ For The Love of Wrestling convention in Manchester, England, former WWE Champion Raj Dhesi (Jinder Mahal) reflected on Indus Sher’s failed run in NXT and their departure from the company.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On Triple H putting him with Indus Sher in NXT: “Hunter again took over creative and he had that idea in his mind and again he asked me, or he told me more or less, ‘hey I’m going to put you with Indus Sher in NXT,’ … I unfortunately got injured again and he’s like, ‘soon as you come back, I’m going to have you with Indus Sher.’”
On being told he was being switched to a manager: “So I spent about 6 months or so with Indus Sher in NXT and at that time I was wrestling … then we went to RAW and in a way I was told that you’re no longer going to wrestle, you’re just going to be a manager, which was kind of like a kick in the gut … these guys are super talented but I just don’t think they had quite the opportunity or the time to develop into WWE Superstars.”
