Jinder Mahal is not rushing to sign a new contract.
The former WWE star recently spoke to MuscleManMalcolm at WrestleCade. He discussed things such as his WWE title win, which talents he would like to face in 2025, his Waffle house order and more.
When asked if he’s open to signing a contract in wrestling, Mahal who goes by the name Raj Dhesi mentioned how he’s enjoying his time as an independent wrestler. He noted that he is not opposed to signing a new deal somewhere but the opportunity will have to be the right one:
“For the right opportunity, yes. Obviously, it’s wrestling business and we’re open for business. But all things have to be right. I don’t mind what I’m doing. I pick my own schedule, wrestle whoever I want. I’m open to do things outside of wrestling. Which is a big thing. But again, for the right opportunity, the right time, anything is possible.”
Jinder Mahal On WWE ID
Speaking about the new WWE ID program, the Modern Day Maharaja said that he’s happy to see a program that can help young indie wrestlers get more opportunities:
“I’m really happy that WWE created the ID program. An opportunity for independent wrestlers to get some brand power with WWE. Help them pursue other opportunities and then one day end up in WWE. I think it’s a great initiative. I think it’s balances well with the NIL program.”
Mahal also talked about his 2018 feud with Roman Reigns and their match at Money In The Bank in Chicago. He revealed that WWE had considered the idea of making it a Punjabi Prison match.
