Jinder Mahal hasn't gotten a solid push in over two years. It was 2017 when he had the best year of his career, winning the WWE Championship and holding on to it for half a year. He was out for an extensive period in 2019 after getting knee surgery and he's now back in the mix, ready to pick up where he left off.

Jinder Mahal is reportedly in for a big push, but all we hope is that WWE can handle it better this time. It's going to require a steady ascent in the card, similar to how Drew McIntyre did it. Mahal is undoubtedly RAW main event material and we fully expect him to be a title challenger to McIntyre in the coming month or two.

Jinder Mahal claimed that his rise to the top will be a "hero's journey". While that might indicate a face turn, Mahal will only be a hero in the mind of his character. Perhaps he can be a delusional heel.
