#4. Jinder Mahal

It may seem odd that I am punching for a wrestler who was recently WWE Champion to be given a push, but that's where we are with Jinder Mahal.

Don't get me wrong: I know he is currently sidelined with an injury, with his returned expected to be at some point in the next few months. Mahal suffered a patellar tendon rupture at a house show in the summer of 2019, so hasn't actually been around to be used or underused.

That said, his usage since losing the WWE Championship to AJ Styles in Manchester, England, in 2017, has left a lot to be desired. He spent some time on the outside of the United States championship picture - being champion for just eight days - but largely spent the most part of early 2019 doing skits for the 24/7 Championship alongside the likes of R Truth.

Mahal is powerful, well-built and a great talker. One of the biggest factors of all is that he is still just 33 years of age, meaning he has lots more left in the tank. Whether his return to the active roster comes early in 2020 or later in the year, I'd like to see him do something big.
