Overview
- Amanpreet Singh, wrestling as Mahabali Shera, landed a thunderous third‑round slap that knocked former WWE champion Jake Hager to the canvas and prompted the referee to stop the bout at Power Slap 21 in Las Vegas on Friday night.
- The loss leaves Hager 1–1 in Dana White’s Power Slap after his April knockout debut and comes after reports he signed a multi‑fight, reportedly six‑bout, deal with the promotion.
- Video of the finish circulated widely on social media with multiple outlets noting Hager lay with arms spasming and needed help to stand before officials led him away.
- Coverage frames the result as a decisive upset for Shera and a major moment in the promotion’s strategy of signing crossover pro‑wrestlers and ex‑fighters to create viral moments.
- Observers say the knockout underscores safety and medical questions about slap fighting’s one‑strike knockout format and leaves Hager’s immediate future in the sport uncertain.
