I wouldn't detest Jinder Mahal quite so much if he were US Champion instead of WWE Champion.
That seems to be the primary point of contention: the fact that it was literally a jump from jobber to the top champion of Smackdown inside a couple of weeks. It could have been some slight argument if he was pushed since his return to the company (Like Drew in NXT), but instead, it would be like if, somehow between now and Survivor Series, Curt Hawkins beats Brock Lesnar, and then WWE legit tries to bill him as a believable, credible champion.

It might be the primary point of contention, but it's not the only point of contention. Sure, the throwing away of their own established lore that Jinder sucks in their very own storylines is frustrating, but past that you also have Jinder sucking. He is really bad. He cannot wrestle well. His promos are bland as fuck. He tries his heart out, and I'm sure he's just a blessing to have in the locker-room, but when you say "Hey Jinder, go out there and entertain people for 10 minutes," he can't do it on either the mic or between the ropes.

He's not even a good mid-carder. He was turgid before he got the giant push, it's just that he wasn't relevant that it was a talking point. But the idea that he almost won the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal sucked. That he got to beat up Rusev when they split sucked. When he was in 3MB he was the suckiest member.

It would be contentious to me whether or not he should be on your roster or not at all. It's good to have representation and be able to trot bodies out there, but he's not really capable. I wouldn't be thrilled by a Jinder Mahal US Title run, or a Jinder Mahal IC Title run. They wouldn't kill my entire interest in the product like his WWE Title run did, but I'm not getting pumped for it and I'm just waiting for him to lose that belt too.
