Shortly after Jinder Mahal defeated Randy Orton at Sunday night’s WWE Backlash pay-per-view, the new WWE Champion’s Wikipedia page was targeted by a few online trolls. Well over 100 modifications were made to the page within an hour of the conclusion of the match.
While the issues were fixed almost instantaneously, here are a few of the changes made to Jinder’s Wiki entry…
- The summary referred to him as the current WCW Champion
- “The Juice” and “Juiced Up” were added to his nicknames
- In the column “Personal Life” it stated that he was in a relationship with Jerry Lawler
- His name was changed to Frank the Clown
- His name was changed to “Triggered Orton Fanboys”
- His name was changed to Juan Carlos
- His name was changed to Jinder Expensive
- His heritage was listed as “Mexican American”
- He was listed as a member of the WWE Divas division
- In the paragraph about his pursuit of the WWE Championship it read, “Mahal took $9.99 from smarks everywhere by becoming WWE Champion in a lowkey lit match”
- His bio read “Your WWE Champion and the Emperor of Earth. Jinder will no longer be hindered.”
- His bio read “he also takes steroids but WWE seems not to care.”
