Very far from it.
Any evidence for that? He didn't have anything approaching good in his title reign.
He is boring, like 3/4 of the guys in that match.
However, I cannot say that his feud against Orton was BAD, nor was his last match against AJ.
There are individuals such as Rowan, English and even Fandango that I would consider way worse than Jinder.
I wouldn't call English or Fandango even close to Mahal bad. I've seen them have much better matches then anything Mahal has done as a major part. The AJ match was merely good, and having just a good match with AJ Styles means it was a let down. I'd take English's singles run earlier this year working pre-show stuff over Mahal working main events. Fandango certainly too. Also, Rowan isn't amazing, but I've seen him hold his own in some of the best matches in the decade.
