Another superstar that was given an undefeated streak upon his debut was Rusev. Clearly, WWE knows the value of victories over defeats because when the company wants to push someone fast and strong, they book them to win. Ryback was used in this way, as was The Shield, but the most recent superstar to have been given the string of dominant victories was the Bulgarian Brute, Rusev. For approximately a year, Rusev went undefeated on WWE television and captured the US Championship by defeating Sheamus. Rusev was even given a victory over John Cena at FastLane 2015. Of course, the feud with Cena would not end well for Rusev as he was forced to quit in the final match to blowoff their feud at Payback. Since the losses to Cena (heard that before?), Rusev would slide down the card and, you guessed it, become relegated to the 50/50 club. Whether he was trading wins with Ryback, Dolph Ziggler, or Cesaro, Rusev has been winning as much as he's neen losing in the second half of 2015.
