#2 Jinder Mahal takes credit for Drew McIntyre's WWE Championship success

Jinder Mahal won the WWE Championship before his former 3MB teammate, Drew McIntyre, in 2017. McIntyre would go on to win the same title twice last year.

Mahal recently expressed to Fightful - in character - that he laid out the blueprint for The Scottish Warrior's journey to becoming a top superstar:

"I came to WWE before Drew. Came back. Became WWE Champion before Drew. Main evented all over the world before Drew. Did all this media before Drew." Mahal added, "If there was no Modern Day Maharaja as WWE Champion, there would be no Drew McIntyre. I showed him the way. I showed him it was possible. I gave him the belief in himself."

Jinder Mahal and Drew McIntyre's last televised singles match took place at SummerSlam 2021, as the latter emerged victoriously from that encounter.
