It was announced that Jinder will be defending his title against Randy Orton at the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View. But who will be next?
Jinder also wants matches against AJ Styles and John Cena:
“I see Randy and A.J. Styles (as opponents), but I’m hoping for Cena when he gets back (from hiatus)”
He also spoke about fans not seeing him as championship material. There have been some fans that have questioned WWE’s decision to put the title on him. Jinder wants to prove himself and says a win against Cena will help solidify him as a legitimate champion:
“I know some people don’t see me as championship material. I haven’t fully gotten their confidence. Beating someone like Cena would solidify me in their eyes as champion.”
