After the match was over, Triple H put over Mahal and said the following:
“I’ve been coming here since 1996. It’s an honor to be back here again. But it’s an honor to step in this ring with The Modern Day Maharaja. I can tell you this – Many people may criticize you, many people may hate you for no reason, but know this…you have earned my respect. India is in good hands with The Modern Day Maharaja.”
