12 Reasons Why Rusev Wins At Life

The Bulgarian Brute has hit the headlines for all the wrong reasons in recent times, but...

Rusev is great. There's no getting away from it. Since making his main roster debut at the 2014 Royal Rumble, the Bulgarian Brute has been a constant at the top of the card and is arguably the only bonafide heel on the roster at the moment.
