A number of WWE superstars have sent their good wishes to their fans in India on the auspicious occasion of Diwali, also known as the festival of lights. From Roman Reigns to Seth Rollins to the Hall of Famer Edge, are amongst those who wished the people of India a happy Diwali on behalf of the entire WWE universe. Recently-crowned WWE champion Big E also wished his fans from India a very happy Diwali. The video of WWE superstars wishing India on Diwali was shared on the official YouTube handle of the professional wrestling company. The video also featured several Indian wrestlers who fight in WWE, including Jindal Mahal, Shanky, and Veer Mahaan.

As far as Roman Reigns is concerned, the 36-year-old defeated Brock Lesnar in their previous clash at Crown Jewel 2021 in Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile, Seth Rollins, who is WWE Championship title contender, will fight Kevin Owens next week. Rollins recently fought  Edge at Crown Jewel 2021, where he lost the Hell in a Cell match against his arch-rival. Rollins is also expected to face Big E in the next Survivor Series, which is slated to take place on November 21.
