Jinder Mahal shocked the wrestling world last week when he won the six-pack challenge on Smackdown Live. By doing so, Jinder became the number one contender for the WWE Championship and will get a title shot at the upcoming backlash PPV.
Jinder had some help from the Bollywood Boyz to win the match , leading to many fans thinking that there could be a new faction coming to WWE television.
If you are unfamiliar with the Bollywood Boyz, they have been seen on WWE programming over the past several months on 205 Live, the Cruiserweight Classic and NXT.
It appears as if Jinder’s new stable could see another name get added to the mix. The Bollywood Boyz accompanied NXT talent: Jeet Rama to the ring during his (dark) match at the recent NXT taping. This has a lot of fans thinking that he could be getting added to the stable on Smackdown Live that features Jinder and the Bollywood Boyz. Jeet won his dark match at the taping, after the Bollywood Boyz provided the distraction. This came only one day after the Bollywood Boyz appeared on Smackdown to help Jinder become number one contender.

As noted prior, Jinder’s push has correlated with WWE’s desire to expand their audience in India. An all-Indian faction could help push this along (Note: Jinder and the Bollywood Boyz are from Canada but are of Indian descent).

We will have to wait and see what happens over the next few weeks and if WWE introduces the faction.
