Details on Veer Mahaan coming
Added 2021-12-28 19:40:39 +0000 UTCVeer has been coming for months.
Since October, WWE has aired vignettes for Veer coming to WWE Raw, where he actually already was. Fightful learned that there was "no real rhyme or reason" behind splitting Veer from Jinder Mahal and Shanky, and for a while, many thought he would just be inexplicably moved back to Smackdown to join them. WWE sources we spoke to said that WWE officials have generally thought he had the most upside of either of his pairings, whether it be with Saurav or Shanky.
As to where Veer has been....he's been at Raw. Since October, Veer has appeared on several episodes of WWE Main Event, beating Cedric Alexander, T-Bar and John Morrison. He's also been at episodes of Raw in which he was not booked for, we're told. As far as creative plans, Fightful was told that as of the time the videos began airing there were no "significant creative plans in place for Veer or his debut." We're not sure if that has changed since then, but we're also told by WWE sources they are self aware of the comedic nature behind stretching this out..

The creative plans was for this to be drawn out it’s funnier

2021-12-29 23:33:44 +0000 UTCIt’s really unfair to him, but I’m not gonna lie…it’s pretty damn funny.

2021-12-29 17:48:35 +0000 UTCMaybe don’t air vignettes if you have no creative plans. The choices this company makes are odd!

2021-12-28 22:20:34 +0000 UTC"Veer has been coming for months." Great Line
2021-12-28 22:10:37 +0000 UTCUnfortunately I can easily see this. I’m not going to speculate on someone’s job though. I hope he has a long and prosperous career.

2021-12-28 20:50:27 +0000 UTCTypical WWE. One of the many reasons I stopped watching finally. There’s no rhyme or reason to anything they do. I don’t get how you can air vignettes for someone and have absolutely no plans for them. It makes no sense to me.

2021-12-28 20:49:58 +0000 UTCVeer will get released before debuting

2021-12-28 20:27:40 +0000 UTCThey can turn this into an amazing comedy bit each week. Maybe have him walk randomly behind a camera shot during an interview, working out with the superstars but even when he's in a match, they play the 'Veer Is Coming' vignette..maybe make that his opening vid :)

2021-12-28 19:55:22 +0000 UTCThat's sad. His career will be a punchline and probably no pay off
AH
2021-12-28 19:50:47 +0000 UTCJesus took less time to find enlightenment in the desert than it took Veer to come to Raw.

2021-12-28 19:50:23 +0000 UTCIt would not suprise me at all if there's no pay off to this and that they probably dont even yet know where its going,

2021-12-28 19:49:57 +0000 UTCThe thing about jokes is that there has to be a punchline, there has to be a pay off in the end. Otherwise the payoff or lack thereof is just egg on everyone's faces.

2021-12-28 19:48:25 +0000 UTCHe about to come out to "Somebody Call my Mama" and dancing in a track suit with the Funkadactyls, watch
Ryan Pregler
2021-12-28 19:44:41 +0000 UTCSo these video packages are just an excuse to pop the boys and they have no plans for Veer but they still have him on the roster
Jordan Lassiter
2021-12-28 19:43:18 +0000 UTCSeriously? Then what’s the point of having him?
2021-12-28 19:43:04 +0000 UTCThat poor dude.
