Raj Dhesi On Making The Most Of His WWE RAW Day 1 Segment With The Rock

Former WWE star Raj Dhesi (Jinder Mahal) spoke with PWInsider.com on a number of topics, including making the most of his RAW Day 1 segment with The Rock.

Dhesi said, You make the best of what you’re given and that’s exactly how I looked at that segment with The Rock. I wasn’t even actually returning. I was managing Indus Sher on Main Event. At that point, it wasn’t a plan for me to wrestle Seth [Rollins] a few weeks after that in a title match. It was just going to be a one-off promo, which went well and got a lot of love from the internet, Twitter, everywhere, and then [we] just carried that momentum into that championship match.”

On returning to wrestle on the independent scene:

“I started from the independents and I’ll probably finish my career, whenever that is, not anytime soon, on the independents.”
