6 things WWE subtly told us on RAW's Draft: Former US Champion loses top pick due to injury , Tag team breaks up due to brand change (October 14th 2019)

#4 Huge plans for Rusev

#7 is not a bad spot!

Rusev was surprisingly in a second-round pick for Monday Night RAW, coming second in the round and 7th overall. That's a huge spot for him and he was picked ahead of quite a few top superstars

Even though Rusev looks terrible in this entire Lashley-Lana storyline, the positive side of it is that he is being presented as a good babyface once again. Moreover, the payoff of the story will most likely involve him beating Bobby Lashley and getting his revenge at the end of it all.

Rusev wouldn't be drafted so early without a good reason and in this case, WWE likely has big plans for The Bulgarian Brute on RAW. Expect big things from him and for Rusev to get featured a lot on TV going forward. Wouldn't it be crazy if this storyline ended up benefiting him?
