How Jinder Mahal, an Indian WWE Star, Is Turning Up the Heat

PROVIDENCE, R.I. — “You people have nothing to celebrate,” Jinder Mahal shouted into a microphone on Tuesday night at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center. The current World Wrestling Entertainment champion was dressed in a black turban and a gray suit with his giant belt slung over his shoulder. He twisted his face into a deep, angry grimace, and continued, “But for my people, today marks Independence Day of the greatest nation on earth: the great nation of India!”

Thousands of fans leapt out of their seats, stuck their thumbs down and roared their disapproval. “SmackDown Live” — one of WWE’s weekly live-televised events had just begun, and Jinder Mahal (real name Yuvraj Singh Dhesi) was using an elaborate celebration of his culture to fire up the crowd. The wrestling ring was decorated with a lush rug; a Bhangra dance team made its way down the entrance ramp; a woman in a purple salwar kameez sang the Indian national anthem.

This is pretty huge for the WWE in general as the publication is using Jinder to test the waters of a dedicated pro wrestling section in the New York Times.
