How Will Jinder Respond to Last Week’s Controversy?
By doubling down, of course! In the same breath that half-heartedly apologized, Jinder once again made jokes at the expense of Shinsuke Nakamura. The crowd was dead silent throughout most of the promo, only chanting to support the Artist Known as Shinsuke Nakamura.
However, one picture Jinder showed wasn’t a picture at all! It was Shinsuke, who eventually made his way to the ring. Nak was able to fight off both the Singh Brothers and delivered a Kinshasa to the current WWE Champion.

I know most people hate Jinder at this point, but something about how he is presented I really enjoy. The suit, the carpet, the way he kisses the belt before raising it, it gets me. If nothing else, Jinder has resuscitated the crowd’s investment in Nakamura after it was put on life support by his feud with Ziggler.
