Jinder Mahal reflects on his online dispute with AEW President Tony Khan back in January.
The former WWE Champion spoke about that fun little back and forth during a recent interview with the Gorilla Position. Mahal says that he can get a title shot whenever he wants due to being the ‘Modern Day Maharaja.’ He adds that the Twitter feud with Khan was good fun, and that competition is good for everyone.
I think Tony Khan is forgetting I’m the Modern Day Maharaja, former WWE Champion, and being a former WWE Champion, I should be number one contender anytime I want. The Royal Rumble happened a week after that. If you notice, I wasn’t in it because I didn’t feel there was a need. The Modern Day Maharaja wants a title match, he can just get one. It’s okay. Overall, it’s great. It caused a lot of buzz, and I appreciate the competition because it makes everybody better.
Elsewhere in the interview, Mahal spoke about working with Rock at Raw Day 1. You can read his thoughts on that here.
