Meltzer says September 9 is the date being discussed but it isn't official yet.
Do you think a Khali cameo would get a bigger pop than Carlito did in Puerto Rico?
I know there's been talk of an Australia PPV too but that's probably likelier for 2024.

India now has the largest stadium in the world. WWE is hugely popular there, maybe they got a shot at beating Collision in Korea’s record.

I want one from Germany to see how over that Gunther will be, since I doubt Austria would get one.

Vinci is bald, but he's not enough of an obnoxious dumbass to be _A_ bald. There's a distinction.

Apparently Roman is super popular in India so they may have to work hard to get him booed.
I doubt Cena would be available but if he was he'd get an incredible reaction too. I think he's even more popular than Roman in India. I remember a clip that must have been from around 2005 with him in Mumbai promoting his album and thinking he was going to like some low-key little event then tens of thousands of people showed up and they had to close down the mall because they couldn't fit anymore people in.

High energy crowds make the events better to watch, IMO, so I'm all for it!

I don't think he'd be particularly over in Germany, more than anywhere else. German promotion wXw was his main home for years on the indies, and he was their school's head trainer right up until he went full time stateside with WWE. I don't know for sure the balance of indie to WWE fans who'd go to a show, but he's probably got a good chance at a big pop.

Please don’t have this lead to another Jinder main event run where he inexplicably ends up in losing in India anyways.

Good lord, if this happens Indus Sher are gonna get Road Warrior level pops lmfao
It's a market I'm shocked wrestling hasn't tapped sooner though, I'm glad expanding to other countries and seeing how crazy hype the fans are is changing this

Pricing is difficult with India, it’s a developing country with a growing but still small middle class. In the past WWE tours have had a lot of empty seats due to local promoters overcharging.
Ticket prices for T20 cricket in India start at 750 rupees (about 9 dollars) going up to 7500 for the posh seats. They do sell out 90k stadiums but remember cricket is the number one sport in India by a mile.

Remember when Triple H gave an interview implying Jinder owuld get his win back and then they never brought it up ever again? Forget the can't-perform-in-the-bedroom rumours. Not wanting to return the favour to Jinder Mahal, that's why HHH faked his heart issues.
