Quinn had a long-standing rugby career spanning from 2009-2017, before signing with NXT in May 2018.
On Twitter/X, Jinder Mahal announced that he “quit” WWE. Jinder is a former WWE Champion who wrestled his last match with the company during the 2024 Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. Jinder was originally signed to WWE in 2010 where he competed in FCW before debuting on the main roster in 2011. Jinder was released in 2014 during a run in the 3MB group. After 2 years on the independent circuit, Jinder returned to WWE in 2016 to win championships including the previously mentioned WWE Championship as well as the United States Title and the 24/7 Championship two times.
Xia Li impressed talent scouts during a January 2017 WWE tryout camp in Shanghai, China. She made her debut in the inaugural Mae Young Classic where she earned the distinction of being the first female Chinese wrestler to compete in WWE. She then competed on NXT for a few years before being drafted to the SmackDown brand during the 2021 WWE Draft. Her last match was against Natalya on the April 15, 2024 episode of WWE Main Event.
Sanga is a former National Kickboxing gold medalist who signed with WWE in 2018. In 2020, Sanga, alongside Veer, joined forces in NXT to form the team Indus Sher. In 2022, Sanga became the bodyguard of Grayson Waller on NXT before being teamed up with Veer again in the 2023 WWE Draft. Indus Sher and Jinder Mahal joined forces up until their release.
Veer came from a baseball background, where he joined the Pittsburgh Pirates at a pitcher following The Million Dollar Arm reality series. He became the first Indian player to be in professional baseball. As mentioned previously, Veer teamed with Sanga on the team Indus Sher. From late 2021 to April 2022, Veer became an internet meme due to having weekly teases that said he was “coming to RAW” soon.
