During a recent appearance on Sportskeeda’s “WrestleBinge” podcast, Raj Dhesi (Jinder Mahal in WWE) revealed that he hasn’t spoken to AEW or any other major company yet. He said,
“I haven’t talked to any major company yet. I am on the independents and working GCW. I have a bunch of other independent dates lined up. In the past two years, I haven’t wrestled that much, maybe ten matches, which is not what I’m used to. I want to get back in the mix, get my legs back, get used to bumping again. Get acclimated and get in ring shape again. Then, we’ll go from there. Anything is possible. I would love to go to TNA, AEW, New Japan, anywhere. Even just the independents. I’m having a great time picking my own schedule, spending time with family.”
During a recent appearance on “The Ringer” podcast, Wes Lee commented on the advice he received from Shawn Michaels following a back injury that kept him on the shelf for five months. He said,
“Prove yourself wrong. The biggest doubter we can ever have is ourselves. We know what we’re capable of. We understand our bodies. Especially hearing it from the man himself, Shawn. The demons that he had to battle to overcome this injury and come back the way he did and have an entire second career. That is something that is unheard of. I didn’t necessarily have the opportunity to build a long enough career before my injury, but I do feel this is a revitalization of my career. I feel tremendous. My mind is in a whole different place. I’m thinking in a whole different echelon. Where I feel I can take myself not only physically, but spiritually and mentally as well, ya’ll ain’t seen nothing yet. The blood that is flowing through these veins is fueling a mutant. A mutant that has healed faster than I should have been and I’m ready to take over.”
