Jinder Mahal, who garnered significant attention earlier this year while contending for the WWE World Heavyweight Title on RAW, is set to make his in-ring return following his release from WWE in April. Despite his efforts in the title match, Mahal was unable to secure the championship, leading to his subsequent departure from WWE.
Now performing under the name Raj Dhesi, Mahal’s next appearance in the wrestling ring has been eagerly anticipated by fans. The wait is over, as it has been confirmed that Dhesi will make his return at the July 26 Black Label Pro (BLP) show titled “Old Habits Die Screaming.” The event will take place at the Logan Square Auditorium in Chicago, IL, starting at 7:30 PM CST.

Fans and industry insiders are buzzing with excitement and speculation about Mahal’s future in professional wrestling. There is already considerable interest from other major promotions, including AEW, regarding the potential signing of the former WWE Superstar. While his long-term plans remain uncertain, it is clear that Raj Dhesi’s return to the ring is highly anticipated and could mark the beginning of an exciting new chapter in his career.
Mahal, known for his tenure in WWE and his memorable run as WWE Champion, has a dedicated fan base eager to see what he can accomplish post-WWE.
