Two weeks ago, Lana interrupted some Rusev Day backstage fun to tell her man that something is holding him back. It was obvious she was talking about Aiden English, and it seemed certain WWE would book a split shortly afterwards.

Apparently, they've either cancelled those plans or gone cold on them. Why else would the threesome appear as a united front on Tuesday night?

Lana again intruded on Rusev and English to tell them that she has a match with Billie Kay on next week's show. Then, she said that they could celebrate together once she qualifies for MITB and encouraged English to sing.

There was no hint of friction in sight.
