Jinder Mahal Gets Huge Pop At WWE Event (Video), Eric Bischoff On Samoa Joe’s Current Push

– Jinder Mahal and the Singh Brothers got a large babyface pop at the WWE live event in Vancouver, British Columbia over the weekend. The show drew a strong crowd of around 6,000 and was possibly due to the region having a large Indian community. The Singh Brothers are from British Columbia and wrestled in the region’s indy scene for several years.

You can check out footage of the crowd reaction below:

– On his recent podcast, “Bischoff on Wrestling,” Eric Bischoff talked about Samoa Joe’s current push and how WWE might want to consider changing original plans:

“When I’ve worked with people on the creative side of things I tell them, ‘This is more of an art than it is a science.’ While there is a WWE formula; what it really comes down to is that you’ve got to keep an open enough mind to feel what the audience is reacting to. If you get so committed to a certain direction and outcome and if you see SummerSlam at the end of your creative horizon. If you see the outcome that you have in mind for SummerSlam and come hell or high water, you’re going to get to that destination. What you are probably going to miss along the way is great opportunities. If you’re so focused on one outcome, you don’t see the potential of others and perhaps.”

“I hope for Joe’s sake this is one of those situations where regardless of whatever they thought they were going to do with Braun or Roman, not to take anything away from both of those guys because I am a big fan of both. If all of a sudden Samoa Joe comes from out of left field, even if he was just designed to be a stepping stone but the audience is reacting to it then… damn son! Shift gears, take that exit, see what’s on the other side of it because it might be better than the original destination.”
