Will the seeds for the India show be sown on SmackDown Live?
WWE comes to India for a supershow on December 9th, featuring Jinder Mahal and Triple H in the main event match. This week, on SmackDown Live, Jinder Mahal challenges AJ Styles for the WWE Championship. This could lead to an interesting possibility.

Could Triple H interfere in the main event, and even the odds for the "Phenomenal One", helping him retain his championship? By doing this, he would be creating a lot of heat for WWE Live-India, an event that is built around his feud with Mahal.
While some of you may argue that there's no reason to do so because Triple H is a heel and Styles is a babyface, bear in mind that Mahal will probably be working as a babyface at home. In all likelihood, Triple H will be the heel in that particular match.
The Indian market is a very important one for WWE, considering its size and its potential. So much so, that they put their championship on Jinder Mahal for six months. Therefore, we believe that they may even pull this off to build heat.
