Lio Rush hasn't had the best 2019. While there were always previous reports last year over some backstage heat he received, it seems like in 2019 that heat reached an all-time high. According to Fightful.com:

A source on the WWE Roster tells me Lio Rush would be very lucky to be back on the main roster any time soon, if ever. The brash cruiserweight has repeatedly rubbed the locker room the wrong way, and we've heard from several WWE sources that the roster has wanted him out of the locker room for quite a while.

Word about things gets around the locker room quite quickly and for the young Rush, it happened to be about an incident with Finn Balor.

One [incident] apparently involves former WWE Universal Champion Finn Balor, who was making an effort to give Rush advice months ago. Balor allegedly let Rush know that it's quite likely that Vince McMahon wouldn't take kindly to his wife sitting in on rehearsals, and Rush responded unfavorably. Word got around the locker room pretty quickly.

Rest assured, Lio Rush will be waiting for the day his contract ends as he seems to be sitting home now.
