The Bulgarian Brute, now residing in Russia, has taken out every competitor he has faced since debuting on WWE television with The Ravishing Russian, Lana. Rusev's first feud is currently with Big E, but it seems Lana is appealing more to the WWE Universe than Rusev is. While taking out Zack Ryder and Xavier Woods on weekly basis is impressive to some, if WWE truly wants Rusev to be a major player in the company, climbing the ladder and winning Money In The Bank is the perfect opportunity to do so. Rusev is very agile for a wrestler of his size. His matches with Big E recently have showcased more of his ability in the ring and he is slowly breaking away from the typical big man persona. The potential interesting spot in this ladder match could be Rusev applying the Accolade with another wrestler laying face down in between a rung in the ladder itself. The Russian gimmick has been done numerous times before, but Rusev could become the most successful one with a victory in Boston. Plus, the more Lana on WWE television, the better.
