As we noted over the weekend, Triple H asked the WWE Universe to make their voices heard, and if they ask for it, then The Game will return to the ring at the December 9th WWE Live Event in New Delhi, India, and face Jinder Mahal.
WWE.com has since posted the following on the possible matchup, looking at Triple H’s challenge and Jinder Mahal’s subsequent response:
“Jinder Mahal lost the WWE Championship in the United Kingdom this week, but he may have gained a new opponent when WWE Live comes to India this December.
Triple H took to social media Saturday night and, while acknowledging the year Mahal has had, asked the WWE Universe in India if they would like to see The King of Kings go one-on-one against The Modern Day Maharaja in New Delhi on Saturday, 9 December.
After finishing a WWE Live Event in Padova, Italy, Mahal replied in a video, expressing his respect for Triple H, but cautioning that if the match were to happen, The King of Kings would bow to The Modern Day Maharaja. Confident that he cannot be defeated in India, Mahal made it clear that he relishes the idea of the match and spoke to the WWE Universe to make their thoughts known.
Will Triple H and Jinder Mahal battle in New Delhi’s Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium on Saturday, 9 December? It’s up to the WWE Universe in India to decide, but the prospect of a match between The King of Kings and The Modern Day Maharaja sounds too good to pass up. Post your comments below or on twitter.com/WWEIndia and weigh in with your opinion.”
