What are your thoughts on Jinder Mahal?

I don't find him particularly good at anything, and he definitely doesn't stand out very well because he has essentially the same gimmick as Del Rio, only on a jobber level instead of a top level, and it's underdeveloped and not played interestingly. Definitely don't think there's main event potential there. Of course, they could always just push him regardless of whether it works or not, which wouldn't be the first time. It's not like it's going to affect business, but thankfully they won't.

I don't mind him being a tv time heel on NXT but that's as far as he needs to go

Passable performer, horrible gimmick.

Jobber. He got nice running knees though.

Jinder's funny in wwe.com exclusives. They should make his character more like that, instead of the standard foreign, elitist heel. He has a good look, his mic skills are fine, and his ring skills are constantly improving.

He's just made to be a jobber. I don't like him, I don't care about him. If he got released, I wouldn't even notice.

Personally I like him even though I see allot of people hating on the guy and I know the reasons why.The fact that he's Indian immediately gets him my attention,I love his theme and gimmick as a rich Indian asshole with Persian rugs and all.If used probably,The guy could be a big heel since we all know most of the WWE's audience hates people from the east "especially Indians,come on lets be real here" so they should really use him as a heel he'd get major heat.

What do you think?

Jinder is the future of the professional wrestling industry. He is such a great heel that even the IWC hates him. The IWC loves heels. That's true talent, folks. Look at The Rock, the iwc adored him as a heel. Therefore, Jinder>Rock.

Got called up way to early and didn't help the fact that WWE just decided to crap on his storyline with Khali.

He isn't horrible, decent mic skills and ring skills but he has a horrible gimmick. Needs repackaging, its essentially the generic foreign heel and rich heel gimmick mixed together. Definitely not good for him. It also doesn't help that you can literally hear a pin drop whenever he comes out and he can't draw heat for crap with his current gimmick.

I agree, he (as many say) was called up to early.
His running knees? Horrible. No impact at all.

Decent look, and, in most aspects, he is just a decent performer - but a bad/underdeveloped gimmick and no special "umph" about him, yet.

I'd like to look at him in a year, possibly two. By then, I'd say, he would improve enough (or not) to show us how much he is really worth.

IMO He's another Alberto Del Rio just Indian instead of Mexican. Rich, arrogant, heel and should be somewhere in the low-midcard.

Jinder's gimmick is just playing on the racism in this country. Anyone watch the match with him and Mcintyre. U-S-A chants!. fuckin LOL

yeah USA chant,but also Drew is not from USA.But americans doesnt know where is Scotland and still thinks that Europe is a country.Dumbass`es

I like his looks

They should repackage him as Jinder McHale, and bill him from Scotland. Send him to the ring with a kilt, have him do the accent and play bagpipes before his matches.

At least that would be funny.

Personally I'd take Jinder over ADR any day. ADR only drives fancy cars, Jinder manages to play into the Indian culture a bit with his bit with the turban. Essentially yeah, they are aristocratic heels, however from clips I heard from his debut in 2011, he sounds a bit more charismatic than ADR on the mic.

However I can't see the similarity between Hogan/Rock to Jinder Mahal, what the hell?

The future. Nuff said.

After seeing him in backstage skits on WWE.com and WWE's youtube channel the guy is pretty funny in a unfunny way if that makes sense awkward comedy.
