Jinder Mahal in UFC?; The Rock Wins An Award And Has A Major Tattoo Upgrade

Jinder Mahal in UFC Next Month

It’s been quite the summer for Jinder Mahal. He was quickly elevated into the main event spotlight and won the WWE Championship, his first championship in the WWE, and now he’s making the jump to UFC, but only for an appearance. Arjan Bhullar, who reportedly is UFC’s first fighter of Indian origin and a fellow Canadian, is scheduled to make his debut at UFC 215 on September 9, and Mahal will accompany his team in the Edmonton, Alberta, Canada show.

When we as a people can genuinely support each other amazing is possible. I was able to watch The Maharaja do his thing in Vancouver and now I'm excited to announce @wwe Champ @jindermahal will be taking time away from his busy schedule to accompany the Team for my debut fight in his home province of Alberta. Shout out to the boss @danawhite for hooking up the VIP treatment #indian #onebillionstrong #punjabi #pride #support #loyal #humble #respect #wwe #ufc

Back in July, Bhullar and Mahal were featured in a workout video where both athletes speak about their history and pride in representing their nationality.

The Rock’s Still Cool With The Teens

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is 45 years old but yet he won a Teen Choice Award last night. He won Choice Fantasy Movie Actor for his performance in the Disney animated film Moana. The WWE congratulated Johnson on his latest award.

The award comes a couple days after he stunned long-time wrestling fans with a drastic change to his brahma bull tattoo. He explained the “evolution” of the bull and detailed what each feature of the new bull represents.

Evolution of the bull. Blood, sweat & years. After 3 sessions and 22hrs of tattooing with world renowned @NikkoHurtado, the story's almost done.. Every detail is a reflection of my own personal history. From the cracks and heavy damage in the bone representing life's hard lessons I've learned over the years. Just like scars and wrinkles – I'm so grateful to have 'em because they're earned. To the horns, not pointing up or out to the side, but pointing straight ahead representing relentless energy and forward progress. The core and anchor of this image is in the eye. Look closely and you'll find the life, energy, power and you'll feel the MANA (spirit). The eye tells the story of a disruptive positive energy always ready to dent the universe. Depending on the light and angle, sometimes the energy's subtle and sometimes it's glaring. But it's always alive and ready to disrupt the universe and love and protect my family and all things I love with intense passion and gratitude. Cheers to living, learning, evolving and growing. And to the positive disrupters ready to dent the universe. #EvolutionOfTheBull #TheDisrupter #TheMana #NowLetsBreakOutTheTequila

Nearly a week ago, Johnson did announced there would be an “evolution” to his iconic bull tattoo, and he also enlightened its history.

Evolution of the bull begins w/ @nikkohurtado. I've engrained this bull in my DNA for two decades. My core. Humbly, it's also become a symbol of strength, resilience, heart, power and defiance to so many people around the world. I got this tattoo when I was just a kid. Now I need it to reflect me as a man. All my ink is a rite of passage and spiritual and the MANA (power and spirit) has to be right before we begin. Mana is strong with world renowned Nikko. We talked for hours about the man I am today, compared to who I once was. And who I'll always be. We all desire to grow and evolve. The mana is right.. let the blood and pain begin. #EvolutionOfTheBull #WheresMyVicodin
