Jinder Mahal Returns To WWE Action

During this week’s edition of WWE main event, Jinder Mahal made his return alongside two NXT developmental talents.

Dilsher Shanky and Rinku Singh accompanied the former WWE Champion for his match against Jeff Hardy. The duo received name changes, with Rinku Singh now known as Veer, and Dilsher Shanky now known simply as Shanky.

Jinder Mahal was able to gain victory over Jeff Hardy with The Khallas.
