We see still images from Jinder Vs. Orton at Battleground, in which The Great Khali returned to help Mahal win!

The WWE Champion, Jinder Mahal comes to the ring. Mahal says he crushed the legacy of Orton on Sunday night and his legacy was born. He said Orton tried to beat him at his own game. Jinder says Randy Orton underestimated the WWE Champion. Mahal demands to know who his opponent will be at SummerSlam in four weeks.

Here comes John Cena to interrupt Mahal. Big reaction for Cena in Richmond. Cena goes to speak and Mahal tells him he wasn’t finished. Mahal knows exactly what Cena is going to say talking about his reigns as champion. He also expects Cena to say that he needed help from The Singh Brothers and The Great Khali at Battleground.

Cena tells Mahal to shut up and wasn’t planning to say any of those things. He actually wants to say congratulations to Mahal. “I’m big on respect and I respect the fact that you are in the best shape of your life.” Cena also respects that Mahal will do anything to keep the WWE Championship. He said tonight is also a heads up. Cena wants to introduce himself because he may only know him from Pistachios commercials.

Hit the trumpets,” adds Cena. Cena jumps down and Mahal holds up his championship.
