After a 10 year absence, the match was brought back for the WWE Battleground Pay-Per-View in 2017. It is one of the most-unique match concepts in WWE history. Here is a list of all the Punjabi Prison matches in WWE history.

After a decade absence, the match was brought back in 2017 at the Battleground PPV.
