10 Quick WWE Fixes To Save Rusev
6. Ravishing
When WWE don't learn from their mistakes, they immediately become doomed to repeat them. And then they repeat them, and somehow end up more doomed than they were before. And on it goes.
Rusev and Lana's 2015 split resulted in inarguably the worst main roster feud of the year. Their romantic collapse dragged Dolph Ziggler and Summer Rae into a love square storyline that just about destroyed all four characters. Ziggler (the babyface) was at one point a potential philanderer, whilst Summer flitted between a dominant Lana-like and a subservient downtrodden damsel. Caught in the middle of the mess, Rusev neither looked particularly strong nor overtly affected from one week to the next. It was fittingly abandoned when WWE elected to steer into the public acknowledgment of Rusev and Lana's real-life engagement.
Though both bathed in blue on Tuesday nights, the pair have yet again been separated, and it's yet again to their detriment.
Lana was first reintroduced as a wrestler (and a poor one at that) who happened to dance a lot, whilst Rusev's abridged comeback story saw him abandon a protestation walk out of the company altogether despite only enduring further suffering since.
Undo the latest needless severence, surely it can be a case of third time lucky for the pair.
