Bollywood Boyz (Singh Brothers) Didn’t Hear Of Brock Lesnar Refusing To Work With Jinder Mahal In 2017
On the November 7, 2017 episode of WWE SmackDown, Jinder Mahal’s WWE Championship reign came to an end as AJ Styles defeated him to win the title.
The title change meant the previously scheduled bout between Brock Lesnar and Jinder Mahal for WWE Survivor Series was changed to Lesnar vs. Styles as Survivor Series pitted brand champions against brand champions.
Road Dogg previously claimed on his podcast that Brock refused to work with Jinder.
Speaking to Steve Fall of WrestlingNews.co, The Bollywood Boyz were asked about the sudden change.
“I remember when we were in Europe and we learned it was supposed to be Jinder vs. AJ, we didn’t ask that question. Just show up, do your thing, and see what happens. It was never, ‘Oh my God, why. What’s the storyline?’ Nah, we showed up and did our thing, simple as that. To hit a little deeper. We were representing India, where our parents come from and our background. For us, we were just happy there were so many kids at home in India or all over the country just looking up to the three of us. ‘These guys are giving up hope that we can all make it,'” said Sunil Singh.
When Road Dogg’s claims were brought up, Sunil said, “First time we’ve heard about it. We had two weeks of Europe to do after that and then go to South America. First time we’re hearing about that.”
Sunil (Gurvinder “Gurv” Sihra) and Samir Singh (Harvinder “Harv” Sihra) said they went about their business in WWE and kept making the towns.
Jinder Mahal will try to win the WWE World Heavyweight Title on Monday’s WWE Raw as he faces Seth Rollins.
