Former WWE Champion Looking To Regain Respect

WWE

Former WWE Champion Jinder Mahal has now shared a message after confronting World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins.

Mahal made his return to WWE TV on the January 1 ‘Day 1’ edition of WWE Raw, moments before The Rock made his entrance and, in Mahal’s eyes, stole his spotlight.

The Modern Day Maharaja interrupted Seth Rollins on Monday’s (January 8) show to state that everyone has been overlooking him, before the duo engaged in a brawl.

Speaking on WWE Raw Talk, Mahal noted that he wants to regain respect from the WWE fans.

Stating that he plans to walk into WrestleMania 40 in April as a champion, he said:

“It’s my objective to regain respect, it’s my objective to no longer be overlooked. Overlooked by the WWE universe, overlooked by the World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins.

“Let me remind you, as I reminded the WWE Universe that I’m a former WWE Champion, the greatest WWE Champion of all time. Now Seth Rollins dreams of headlining WrestleMania, but the reality is I will regain championship gold, and this year’s WrestleMania will be mine.

“With the World Heavyweight Championship, I will be the one with the platform and I will continue to expose, I will continue to enlighten, I will continue to speak the truth.”
