Jinder Mahal: There’s A Time And A Place For A Big Maharaja Babyface Run, Let’s Make It Happen

Jinder Mahal wants a babyface run.

Mahal has been active on TikTok as of late, as he has been using the platform to connect with fans and show his personality to the world. Many fans are rooting for Mahal's future success, as he is set to become a free agent after his non-complete clause with WWE expires. The company released Mahal from his contract on April 19.

In a recent TikTok video, Mahal talked about how wrestlers with Indian heritage have historically been portrayed in a stereotypical way before noting that he would like a run as a babyface.

“Historically, South Asian wrestlers, Indian wrestlers, wrestlers of Indian heritage have always been portrayed in a stereotypical way. I think that needs to change. We each have our own identities, we have our stories. We want to share those stories. I think now is the perfect opportunity for me to introduce a new character, not even so much a character, just be myself. I’m Canadian, I’m proud of my Indian heritage, Punjabi heritage. I definitely wanna have elements of that to represent my culture and who I’m proud of. But, one thing that I missed out on was having a baby face run. I think that would have been really good. You guys are getting a chance to see my personality through TikTok. I just recently did a Chris Van Vliet podcast episode. I got a chance to myself and the response has been overwhelming. You know, I guess nobody ever saw this side of me. Yeah, I’m excited to show more of it in the future. There’s a time and a place for a big Maharaja baby face run, so let’s make it happen.”
