9) Jinder Steals The Title!
This weeks episode of Smackdown Live featured a no disqualification match between Erick Rowan and WWE Champion: Randy Orton. After Orton won, Jinder Mahal came to the ring.
Jinder went face to face with Orton, telling him to not overlook him for their match at Backlash. Jinder would end up getting the better of Orton, beating him down. He would eventually hit his finisher on Orton and steal the title!

Mahal was shown driving away with the title in a limo. I guess that is how the WWE gets away with the title not being on the line on Sunday.
10) Bollywood Boyz Get A New Name
Jinder didn’t steal the title alone, he had some help from the ‘Singh Brothers’, who also helped him become the number one contender last week.
The Singh Brothers got a new name as they were previously billed as the ‘Bollywood Boyz’. You might recognize them from NXT, 205 Live or the Cruiserweight Classic:
Looks like they will be backing Jinder in his new stable for good!
