Jinder couldn't lace Hunter's boots. He's very fortunate to have gotten a competitive 30 minute match with him.
And I'm not particularly a fan of Triple H the wrestler. I'm not a detractor but he's certainly not one of my all time favorites neither.

Yes I remember when they were building that Stone Cold Steve Austin guy and he used to lose all the time. It's a foolproof way to build somebody up.

If you cannot see this, this is HBK 97 syndrome.
Remember HBK-Bulldog One Night Only? This guy politic his way towards winning the title. Even thought everyone thought it was bad for business. Who was the only guy to agree?
HHH.
He learned something from Michaels that night.
I'm just glad Mahal didn't have a dying sister that night in the crowd.

I get why HHH won, because they're trying to set up a match with Angle or Shane and Mania. So what sense does it make to have him lose to Jinder?
However if they were honest, they would just say "Jinder was huge mistake. We were idiots for putting the title on him. Of course Hunter beat him."

Jinder underperformed and not only didn't deliver what they wanted, but had a somewhat negative impact on the whole thing. The experiment failed, and they're not going to admit that publicly by shunting him down into some nothing undercard match when they sold the tour on him being a big star, but having him lose to Triple H is course correction. It's a loss that doesn't make him look bad while he still lingers in the main event, and then once the rematch is over he can slide back down the card to where he belongs. Triple H won't say out loud that he sucks and this was letting him down the card easy because they want the illusion the experiment hasn't failed, but this was them closing the book on Jinder and it was absolutely the right call.

Speaking of Triple H putting over job guys, remember that weird concussion angle he did with Curtis Axel? They had 2 matches on Raw from my recollection.

So the higher ups feel he hasnt earned a victory over Triple H, at a house show half way across the globe but they had him as champion for most of the year?

I would be happy if they jobbed the guy out to Hornswoggle, so I'm fine with this.

The way the match played out from what I saw, Triple H winning was the way to go. I think Jinder looked better showing some humility than he has come across in most of his victories.

What about all those times he went over against bigger names than him or inserted himself on the hottest storylines just because?
