I've never understood the logic behind pushing wrestlers from certain ethnic backgrounds to appeal to that audience.
I mean, if you watch WWE, surely you watch it for the sake of guys like John Cena, Roman Reigns, AJ Styles etc... basically, you watch it because it's the WWE, not because of that one dude who's from the same country as you.
And in the case of Jinder Mahal... he's a heel. Are Indian people supposed to "get behind him" or something? He's a bad guy! If Indian people watch WWE, I'm sure they understand how it works. I can understand having someone like Mahal under contract, and perhaps playing up his Nationality when they're overseas, but just seems so illogical to have to do it on home soil to appeal to an audience, who are likely watching regardless of that one dude, anyway.
Ya'mean?
