10 Things WWE Wants You To Forget About WrestleMania 31

3. Ru

He rode into 'Mania on a freaking tank for crying out loud! Back in March of 2015 there was absolutely no stopping the Bulgarian Brute come Russian Sympathiser. He had gone a year and two months undefeated after his main roster debut at the 2014 Royal Rumble, but then he became embroiled in a rivalry with John Cena that instantly killed all the momentum that had built up over a long period of time. It's just been a long tale of woe for RuRu since his first loss, as he got involved in that horrid love quadrilateral with Lana, Summer Rae and Dolph Ziggler before becoming a bit of a comedy act/ B team player as part of the League of Nations. Oh what could have been. It's going to take one hell of a rebuilding job to get Rusev back to that level. It really looked like WWE had found a long stay as their main event heel in the former US Champion, but that loss to Cena - plus some horrible, horrible booking - put an end to that. Poor RuRu...
