#1 The pre-show king

If you start counting the number of times Rusev has appeared on the pre-show/kick-off show over the past couple of years, chances are that your fingers would not be enough for counting.
The Bulgarian Brute has become a prominent part of the kick-off show over the last several months. It doesn't matter whether he is involved in a throwaway match or a title match, he is mostly seen on the pay-per-views' kick-off.
Earlier this year at the Royal Rumble, he was set to defend his newly won United States Championship against Shinsuke Nakamura. The bout was announced for the kick-off. A fan suggested a grand entrance plan featuring a tank for Rusev, in his first title defense.
However, the three-time United States Champion had a good laugh at the idea. He brought up how he was competing at the pre-show and that the chances of a grand entrance were non-existent.
