In an interview with SLAM Wrestling, former WWE superstar Jinder Mahal, who is now using the name Raj Singh on the independent scene and is available for bookings with former WWE superstar Drew Galloway (McIntyre) noted that he was surprised when he was told of his WWE release.

“I was surprised, because we were pretty well booked on everything. We were on a lot of the live events, a lot of the overseas tours. We were always on Raw and Smackdown, and if we weren’t, we would do Superstars or Main Event in the week. So yeah, I was surprised.”
