Powell’s POV: If history is any indication, we should expect to see a lot more of Jinder Mahal (and Veer Mahaan and Sanga) on television in the weeks ahead. Meanwhile, the company is holding a live Smackdown the same night in Boston at TD Garden. We are looking for reports on all WWE live events. If you attend a show, you are encouraged to send a report or even basic results to dotnetjason@gmail.com.
