Seriously, have they actually explained who this guy is and why Khali and Singh were in such awe when he first arrived on the scene? Along with that how he can suddenly control Khali like he does? The only thing I'm 100% sure about is that he has a very funny name.
So have I missed something?

I think it was said once on commentary that he's a big deal where he's from. Still waiting for them to explain why exactly. Of course, I'm also waiting to figure out what the "bigger picture" is. And, who is the Anonymous RAW General Manager. And who drove the limo that crushed Bret Hart's leg. I guess I'm just a waitin' ass.

I presume it's Alberto Del Rio meets Muhammed Hassan, minus some charisma and ring ability.
Kind of been given a strange build up, they haven't given us a reason to really care about him yet.

Bollywood star. He's just waiting for the right time to break out in song and dance.

Does it really require an explanation? He's a big deal back in India, Khali respects him, and when he points out that Khali's gone from being a former world champion to a joke thanks to listening to his brother, it drives Khali to get his mean streak back.
Sometimes I think the commentators are missing the points of the angles and no one's correcting them, so they're playing up stuff that should be straightforward like it's a mystery... like when Cole kept suggesting that Kharma had some sort of hypnotic ability that was keeping the divas transfixed in the ring instead of running from her.

They always fail to call big moments in matches at the minute, which if they did would make the matches far better.

What do you need to know?
He talked sense into Khali. Showed him that he was making a fool of himself

It's all building to a storyline that will be dropped.

But if we knew more we might more easlily get invested in the character and what he's doing. Becuase I don't see him getting too far as the Indian Alberto Del Rio minus the fancy cars and ring announcer.

And he's got enough clout that a guy who made his debut taking out The Undertaker took a slap from the guy and just, well, took it. It's one of those things that speaks for itself.

We know as much about him as we know about say...Drew or Sheamus or any number of other guys in WWE.

This is why we need Matt Striker back on commentary. He would have come up with some insane bull shit back story the week Mahal made his debut. Then there would be no need for speculations.

If Del Rio was a big deal, fairly quick then Jinder is a big deal, slow as a freakin' slug.
