Bengaluru, May 27: It was an auspicious occasion for all the WWE fans of India when Jinder Mahal won the WWE Championship at Backlash, this past Sunday.
In case you don't know, he became the 50th overall WWE champion in the history of the company and the only second Indian to do so, next to Great Khali.
In fact, he is the only one who became WWE champion without any official merchandise released by the WWE.
So, that wipes out the possibility of incrementing merchandise selling, for now. In addition, the decline in ratings has been a constant headache for them.
As stated by Dave Meltzer, the veteran wrestling journalist, the situation was worse for the Backlash PPV.
The go home show for Backlash has witnessed 2.175 million viewers which were a record low for this year.
