10 WWE Storylines That Made No Damn Sense In 2020
7. Lana, Lashley, Liv And Rusev
The first great storyline of 2020. This should have been the lowest of the low, the worst creative move that WWE could make in this most wretched of years. How naive, how very naive.
Truth be told, WWE's handling of this entire debacle wasn't exactly out of character. It is fairly standard for this company to put together stories that are preposterous from the get-go, feuds designed to make their stars look like idiots. The love rectangle between Lana, Rusev, Bobby Lashley and Liv Morgan was merely the latest example.
It wasn't exactly a love rectangle. 2019 ended with Lana leaving Rusev for Lashley, albeit in a cucky sort of way, before Liv Morgan interrupted the wedding, expressing her love for Lana. The segment was panned by all and sundry, with Liv's love left lame. Try saying that when you're drunk, it won't end well.
The storyline with Liv and Rusev was abandoned, but Lashley and Lana continued to work together as a 'married' couple, albeit a married couple with all the chemistry of water and oil. By June, they were divorced.
It was eventually reported that WWE had Liv interrupt the wedding purely in the hope of getting a big reaction. In fact, this entire mess was an exercise in poor-planning, a storyline that existed on a week to week basis in the hope of making some kind of 'so bad it is good' list, car crash TV that was every bit as bad as it was designed to be.
That doesn't make it any less stupid.
