WWE is scheduled for a short tour in India this coming September, thus the reason why on the latest Wrestling Observer Radio Bryan Alvarez speculated that Jinder Mahal may end up holding onto the WWE Title until at least September. 
Dave Meltzer said though that making Jinder Mahal champion has nothing to do with the live tour. The reason behind this is more of an attempt to monetize Mahal in India and to increase network subscriptions and to a lesser extent, merchandise sales. He went on to say that if WWE wants the Mahal push to work, his title reign has to last a long time.
