New Delhi: As Jinder Mahal takes on Triple H at Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium later today, the Indian origin wrestler is nervous ahead of the big match. The former WWE champions has also termed his showdown against Triple H as biggest of his career.
“This is definitely the biggest match of my career. Probably the biggest match in Indian wrestling history. I’m really disappointed that I’m not here as WWE champion, but a match against Triple H is more than making up for it. I was really looking forward to play Kevin Owens, but this is a really big match,” Mahal was quoted as saying by the Times of India.
“I would be lying if I said it was not a little bit nervous. I definitely feel the pressure. I’m very, very nervous. Triple H said in a recent interview that now his job is to ensure that the next generation of WWE superstars are up to par, so basically Triple H is the measuring sick, so I need this match personally. I want to see how I measure up to Triple H, the ‘King of Kings’,” he added.
It won’t be easy for Mahal to outplay Triple H, who has been champion 13 times. However, the ‘Modern Day Maharaja’ is confident of defeating Triple H.
“I personally believe that Triple H is a bit past his prime, whereas I haven’t even hit my prime, I’m 31 years old. Day by day, week by week, month by month I’m getting better. I hope Triple H sees that, and come tomorrow I think he’s going to see that my arm is going to be raised at the end of the night [in celebration of victory],” he said.
