Jinder Mahal won't let his release from WWE prevent him from achieving his goals in the ring and will be competing under a new name.
Mahal was among those released by WWE earlier this month as part of the first wave of cuts under the promotion's new era. The former WWE & United States Champion was previously released from the company in 2014 but returned two years later.
Mahal will have to wait for his non-compete clause to expire in July before he works elsewhere, but the Modern-Day Maharaja has already been making plans. Mahal recently trademarked the term 'The Maharaja' for its use on merchandise as well as the name 'Raj Dhesi.' It seems the Dhesi name will be what Mahal competes under going forward. These filings were made under Mahal's real name Yuvraj Dhesi.
Whatever name Mahal wrestles under from here on, the ex-Superstar seemingly won't be struggling to find work. Promotions have been very eager to work with Mahal now that he's out of WWE with Game Changer Wrestling being just one of several interested parties.
GCW could certainly do with Mahal being a top heel in their company to replace the injured Matt Cardona. Whether Mahal goes to GCW or somewhere else, expect to see plenty more of Raj Dhesi when his non-compete clause with WWE is a thing of the past.
