The echoes of air guitar riffs and the unmistakable swagger of three WWE misfits have returned to the spotlight, thanks to a heartfelt reunion and a bold call from Jinder Mahal. The former WWE Champion recently declared that it’s time for 3MB the short-lived but unforgettable faction of Mahal, Drew McIntyre, and Heath Slater—to reform, sparking nostalgia and excitement among wrestling fans worldwide.
3MB Reunites at Jinder Mahal’s Wedding
The reunion began not in a wrestling ring, but at a much more personal event: Jinder Mahal’s wedding. The former WWE star, now known by his real name Raj Dhesi, tied the knot in June 2025, and the guest list included two of his most iconic partners Drew McIntyre and Heath Slater. Photos and videos from the celebration quickly went viral, showing the trio dressed in traditional Indian attire, laughing, and even dancing together.
Drew McIntyre took to social media to share a photo of the three, captioning it simply: “Band back together.” The image, which featured Mahal, McIntyre, and Slater in matching outfits, sent fans into a nostalgic frenzy. Clips from the wedding showed the trio enjoying the festivities, with Drew and Heath even busting out some air guitar moves a nod to their infamous 3MB days.
According to a WWE insider, “There was a real sense of camaraderie among the three. They’ve all gone their separate ways since their WWE days, but seeing them together again, it was clear that the chemistry is still there. It wasn’t just a photo op it felt genuine.”
Mahal Reflects on 3MB’s Journey
In a recent interview with The Click and Tell show, Jinder Mahal opened up about his time in WWE and the legacy of 3MB. When shown the first photo he ever posted on Instagram a snapshot of the 3MB trio Mahal took a moment to reflect on how far they’ve all come.
“What I see when I look at that picture is just the journey, almost 15 years, right? Independently, all three of us, so many ups and downs,” Mahal said. “When the three of us split, me and Drew went away for a while, reinventing ourselves. Heath, reinventing himself. Me and Drew, becoming world champions, WWE champions. So now it’s on Heath Slater to become world champion.”
Mahal’s words were laced with humor, but also a sense of pride in what the group accomplished. Despite their lack of mainstream success during their original run, 3MB left an indelible mark on WWE history. Their over-the-top personas, memorable promos, and undeniable chemistry made them a fan favorite, even if they never reached the main event scene.
The Case for a 3MB Reunion
Mahal didn’t just reminisce he made a bold declaration: “I think now enough time has passed where it’s kind of people have nostalgia. They kind of miss 3MB, and they remember the good times, but at that time, we didn’t have a whole lot of support, not like now. But I think the band has to reform. Maybe have a reunion tour of some sort.”
The idea of a 3MB reunion tour has been a pipe dream for fans for years, but Mahal’s comments have reignited the conversation. While all three members are in different places in their careers McIntyre remains a top star in WWE, Slater has carved out a niche on the independent scene, and Mahal has been active in various promotions the possibility of a one-off reunion or even a nostalgia tour isn’t out of the question.
“Jinder’s comments are more than just nostalgia,” said a source close to WWE’s creative team. “There’s genuine interest in bringing back some of these classic factions for special events. 3MB has a unique place in WWE history, and with the current trend of nostalgia-driven storylines, it wouldn’t be surprising to see them back together, even if just for a night.”
Why 3MB Worked
So, what made 3MB so special? Mahal pointed to the lack of ego among the members and their ability to have fun together. “3MB worked because none of us had any ego, and we had fun working together,” he said. “We weren’t trying to be the next big thing we were just three guys having a good time.”
That chemistry was evident in their promos, matches, and even their interactions outside the ring. While they may not have been the most technically gifted or the most popular faction, their charisma and willingness to embrace the absurdity of their gimmick made them stand out.
The Future of 3MB
While a full-scale reunion tour may be unlikely, the recent wedding reunion and Mahal’s comments have given fans hope. With WWE increasingly leaning into nostalgia and special events, the idea of 3MB returning for a one-off match or even a short tour isn’t as far-fetched as it once seemed.
“Heath Slater is the only one who hasn’t held a world title,” Mahal joked. “So now it’s on him to become world champion.” Whether or not Slater follows in the footsteps of Mahal and McIntyre, the legacy of 3MB remains intact.
As the wrestling world continues to evolve, the call for a 3MB reunion serves as a reminder of the power of nostalgia and the enduring appeal of WWE’s most memorable factions. For now, fans can relive the glory days through photos, videos, and the hope that one day, the band will truly reform.
