In the expansive realm of professional wrestling, WWE has undeniably established its global dominance, earning the title of the world’s largest pro wrestling promotion. India, boasting millions of pro wrestling enthusiasts, is no exception, and what makes it even more special is the strong bond that WWE superstars share with their Indian fanbase. A recent video shared by the company on YouTube showcased a unique and entertaining side of these wrestlers as they playfully channeled their inner Bollywood stars.
The likes of The Great Khali, Rhea Ripley, Jinder Mahal, and Sami Zayn were seen imitating Shahrukh Khan in a light-hearted manner. An amusing moment unfolded as The Great Khali, attempting to mimic Salman Khan, couldn’t contain his laughter. Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley shared that she often incorporates Salman Khan’s iconic nose-touching gesture into her in-ring performances.
Adding another layer of entertainment, these renowned superstars also showcased their dance moves in the style of veteran actor Govinda. The video concluded with a lighthearted celebration to Ranveer Singh’s hit song “Tatad-Taatad,” complete with funny moments and playful interactions.
Shifting gears to the wrestling scene, Jinder Mahal, a WWE veteran with over a decade of experience, has faced recent challenges. Having previously held the World Champion and US Championship titles, he currently finds himself in a managerial role for The Indus Lions team. Veer Mahan and Saurav Gurjar, known as Sanga, have been part of The Indus Lion since their NXT days, with Jinder Mahal joining as their manager this year. Unfortunately, their recent storyline struggles have resulted in limited TV time.
In their most recent appearance in November’s Tag Team Turmoil match, The Indus Lions faced defeat, with The Creed Brothers emerging victorious. As we look ahead, the hope remains that the coming year brings positive developments for this Indian team, revitalizing their presence in the WWE spotlight.
