As per the reports, the incident took place during the main event segment which was scheduled between Jinder Mahal and Shinsuke Nakamura. As per the norm, prior to the start of the match, the title was handed over to the referee and then to the time-keeper to keep it at the ringside area.



One of the fans tried to enter the time-keeper’s area during the match and run away with the WWE title of Jinder Mahal. But, was immediately stopped by the security guards present at ringside and escorted out of the place. Here is a video footage which shows Jinder’s concern for his title.
