Jinder Mahal believes 3MB is special because of the success all three members of the group achieved after being a part of the faction.
The Modern Day Maharaja recently had an interview with Straight Talk Wrestling. He talked about things such as his WWE Championship win, why representation is important in wrestling and more.
During the talk, Mahal was asked about the popularity of 3MB. The former champion explained that the group is more over now than it was during its run. According to Jinder, what makes it special is the things they were able to do after 3MB:
I think we're more over now, like in people's memory, than we were at that time. And I think what really makes it special is what we did after 3MB. Heath Slater with the Tag Team Championship with Rhino and the kids, and the getting a job—amazing, very memorable stuff.
Drew McIntyre, obviously, one of the best professional wrestlers on Earth, not only in WWE but on planet Earth. And then myself, winning the WWE Championship, United States Championship, 24/7 Championship.
We Made A Point To Work Hard: Jinder Mahal
3MB featuring Heath Slater, Drew McIntyre, and Jinder Mahal was formed back in September 2012. While they lost the majority of their matches, the faction was featured regularly on TV and they participated in many memorable segments during their time together.
Mahal explained that people did not expect anything from them when they were put together. The trio, however, took the whole thing as a motivation to do better:
So, I think just the success that we had after 3MB, when really nothing was expected from us, and we made a point to work hard and succeed. We weren't going to look at this as a demotion or something. If anything, it was to motivate us, to take us to the next level, and that's what we all did.
3MB stayed together until April 2014 when both Mahal and McIntyre were released from their contracts. Jinder Mahal was brought back a couple of years later in July 2016 while Drew McIntyre rejoined the company in April 2017.
