Ranking Every WWE Mixed Match Challenge Team From Worst To Best

4. Lana & Rusev

Rusev Lana Mixed Match Challenge

We'd love to see WWE do something meaningful with real-life lovebirds Lana and Rusev during the Mixed Match Challenge. Ever since that ill-advised first split in 2015, the pair have been consistently let down on the creative side of things and it needs to stop. WWE could make it up to the 'Ravishing Russian' and her man by giving them a win here.

Elias and Bayley would be a poor choice to beat them too. At the very least, Lana and Rusev must make it to the second round, where they'll meet the winners of Nia Jax and Apollo Crews vs. Charlotte Flair and Bobby Roode. We wonder who that will be.

Go on, writers, pull through for Ru-Ru and his bride then pen Aiden English in to sing a celebration song. They deserve a break.

Likelihood Of Winning: Fair.
