Jinder Mahal vs. Effy announced for GCW Now and Forever
Posted: Jul 22nd 2024 By: Bryan Rose
The former Jinder Mahal’s first match for GCW is set.
On Sunday, the company announced on X that Mahal’s first match will be against Effy on August 2 in Cleveland, Ohio. Mahal will be wrestling under the name “The Maharaja” Raj Dhesi moving forward.
The match announcement follows an angle that took place this past Friday night at GCW’s So High event. Mahal entered the ring following a Effy/Cole Radick tag team match under a mask and laid out Effy with the Khallas, unmasking himself soon after.
On X, Mahal said he would raise GCW to his standards and become their champion. He said he also witnessed “recreational drug use” among other things backstage and claimed that Matt Cardona has done a terrible job as GCW General Manager.
Mahal was released from WWE back in April. After Mahal lost a match to Seth Rollins earlier in the year, he had largely been off WWE TV prior to his release with the exception of an appearance in the Andre the Giant Battle Royal on the SmackDown before WrestleMania 40.
