Rumor: WWE Bringing Back Major Gimmick Match

Well you can’t say it’s not appropriate. Randy Orton vs. Jinder Mahal has taken place at back to back “Smackdown Live” pay per views and that means it’s time for another rematch, which is likely to need a twist. In this case, there’s a match that perfectly fits the characters involved.

According to Sportskeeda, Orton vs. Mahal III will be a Punjabi Prison match at “Battleground 2017” on July 23. The Punjabi Prison match has taken place twice before with the most recent version being held at “No Mercy 2007”. The match features two cages made of bamboo, with the larger surrounding the cage and the smaller surrounding the ring. There are a series of trap doors that open on a timer and the winner is the first man to escape both cages.

In case you haven’t seen one before, here’s the most recent edition of a fairly complicated concept.

Opinion: It would certainly be different. I’d love to see the match actually announced as you can only do the same style of match over and over again so many times (and they’ve done that) without it getting really tiresome. It’s quite the unique gimmick match and that’s something that can offer some help.

Do you like the idea of the Punjabi Prison match returning? If not that, what else should the third match be? Let us know in the comments below.
