Where are they now?

The Bollywood Boyz debuted on the main roster in April 2017 as The Singh Brothers, and they helped Jinder Mahal become the #1 contender for Randy Orton's WWE Championship. They worked with Mahal for almost two years and assisted Mahal in multiple matches.

On the October 9, 2020 episode of 205 Live, the duo returned to the purple brand as The Bollywood Boyz. They recently had a match against 205 Live originals, Nese and Gulak, and they lost his bout.

Winning the WWE Cruiserweight Championship at WrestleMania 35 was the biggest moment of Tony Nese's career. After he lost that title to Drew Gulak, his career hasn't taken any significant direction. Nese has been on the losing end of some squash matches on RAW and SmackDown. He currently performs on NXT and 205 Live.

Drew Gulak had some memorable feuds with the likes of Mustafa Ali and Akira Tozawa under the gimmick of "No-Fly Zone" during his tenure on 205 Live. He reigned as the Cruiserweight Champion by defeating Tony Nese.

Gulak was later drafted to WWE SmackDown, and he has moved to RAW, where he has won the WWE 24/7 Championship. He remains a contender for R-Truth's title.
