The Great Khali returns to assist Jinder Mahal in his Punjabi Prison Match: WWE Battleground 2017

Ex- WWE World Heavyweight Champion The Great Khali made his return to the company during the Punjabi Prison match between Randy Orton and Jinder Mahal, and it looks like he’ll be sticking around for a while.

On Sunday’s post-Battleground edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer explained why WWE decided to bring Khali back.

“So, I guess the idea is The Great Khali is back, and Jinder Mahal… WWE is trying to make him popular in India, and my impression is that he’s not that popular in India. But, The Great Khali really is popular, and they brought him back to hopefully give Jinder a rub.”

Do you think that The Great Khali will give Jinder Mahal the boost that he needs? Let us know in the comments below!
