“If I can beat the Undertaker, does Roman Reigns stand a chance?” – The Great Khali

Raw Superstar who is all set to re-debut on the Raw after Wrestlemania, ‘Veer Mahaan’ reacted to this interview with an acknowledging emoji:
Who are the active Indian-origin wrestlers in WWE?
Despite the fact that India is the company’s second-largest market, there have been very few Indian wrestlers in WWE so far. Despite the fact that the Indian subcontinent has a thriving traditional wrestling culture.
The Great Khali made himself a big name in WWE before he retired from in-ring competition. His biggest achievement was winning the big gold, the World Heavyweight Championship. Post that, it was Jinder Mahal from India who won the WWE Championship. We all know that Veer Mahaan who is about to re-debut and Jinder Mahaal are active Indian WWE Superstars, but are there more?
Apart from Jinder Mahal and Veer Mahaan,
- Saurav Gujar – NXT
- Dilsher Shanky – Smackdown
- Guru Raaj – 205 Live and NXT
are some of the Indian-born superstars who are working for WWE.
