WWE Money in the Bank: Jinder Mahal beats Randy Orton to retain WWE championship
India's Jinder Mahal defeated Randy Orton to retain his WWE championship at Smackdown's exclusive pay-per-view Money in the Bank at St. Louis on Sunday.
The self-proclaimed 'Modern day Maharaja' gave a 'Khallas' -- a variation of the 'Full Nelson Slam' to finish off the 14-time champion and get the three count.
Orton, who was distracted by the Singh Brothers went on a rampage outside the ring as he hit them off with RKO's and made sure there's no more distraction coming his way. But, when he returned to the ring, Mahal hit his finisher to retain his championship.
WWE Money in the Bank: Jinder Mahal beats Randy Orton to retain WWE championship
Talking about his victory at the Talking Smack -- a post match show -- he said that it was a great feeling.
"It almost felt as good as the night I won the WWE championship"
He was also quick to point out that Orton's mistake itself cost him the match.
"But as far as Randy (Orton), I just want to say that he is a 14-time WWE champion and he made a rookie mistake. I would expect better from him. He has someone in the ring like me...I'm a dangerous dangerous competitor and he turned his back on me and that's exactly why he lost and why I'm the champion," he said.
The 30-year-old also said that his aim is to win the most number of titles in the history of the WWE.
"When Randy Orton was WWE champion for the first time, I was in high school. I'm not even entering my prime and that's a scary scary thought. I'm only getting better every week...every week I improve in the ring and I intend on being a long time champion.
"I'm going to beat Randy Orton, John Cena and Ric Flair's record because I'm the hardest working man in the entire WWE," Mahal said.
"If someone outworks me, I'd give him the WWE championship but until then the Maharaja will reign," he added.

REGARDING PAIGE’S IN-RING RETURN
Paige hasn’t been featured on WWE programming since before the WWE Draft back in July of last year. It’s been roughly a year since she made an appearance on WWE television, but the interesting thing is the fans have had plenty to talk about with all the drama surrounding her over the past year while she’s been away. A lot of people are still wondering if her WWE career will continue base on everything that’s happened to her.

She has been off of WWE programming for the last year because of a serious neck injury and suspensions as a result of violating the WWE Wellness Policy twice. There have also been consistent pregnancy rumors, and the entire sex tape scandal has just created a mess of her reputation with the WWE Universe. At this point, it seems wrestling fans have been talking about Paige doing anything other than wrestling for the past year.

However, Paige is still contracted with WWE through 2019. The expectation is she will be making her long-awaited return to the squared circle sooner rather than later. That has been the case for a few months now, but it’s being reported that her return is actually happening soon. The most obvious goal would likely be for a big return at WWE Summerslam in August, but there is no timetable for Paige’s return to the WWE ring.

The former WWE Divas Champion took to social media to confirm that she’s setting her sights on her return to the ring after getting back her final x-rays after her neck surgery. Paige’s WWE comeback is underway. It will be a redemptive return to WWE because she’s still very much in the minds of the fans, who showed a lot of support through her recovery and scandal from a few months ago. Paige is guaranteed for a babyface run.

The biggest issue Paige will have during her transition back onto WWE programming is finding a spot. The WWE Universe will support her, but she hasn’t wrestled since before the WWE Draft. A lot has changed in the last year. Paige may have been drafted to Raw, but it’s unclear if WWE officials still feel that is the right brand for her to go to after her return. The powers that be may decide she’s a better fit on SmackDown.

WWE officials are unlikely to rush her back into the Women’s Title picture no matter which brand she’s put on, but the hope is that Paige can become a strong part of the Women’s division again because she was very important to the progress women have made on WWE programming over the past few years. Hopefully, the last year can be forgotten, and Paige can get back into the ring to do what she does best.
