WWE Greatest Royal Rumble: Analysing and grading each match

#4 Jeff Hardy def. Jinder Mahal (United States Championship)

Match: Jeff Hardy eliminated the threat of Sunil Singh by knocking him off the ring apron towards the end of the match. He then followed up a Twist of Fate on Jinder Mahal by hitting him with a Swanton Bomb to pick up the win, successfully retaining his United States Championship.

Verdict: There was a major botch in this match – a phantom fall to the mat from Jinder when he wasn’t even touched by Jeff’s Whisper In The Wind – and it looked truly terrible. Other than that, this was a standard match that you would expect to see on Raw or SmackDown, but it’s difficult to grade it higher than a D due to the botch.
