7 Mistakes WWE made in 2019

#2 The Rusev-Lana-Lashley Love Triangle

We wish we had never seen this!

We are in that era of Sports Entertainment where the word kayfabe doesn't mean much anymore. Gone are the days when kids used to believe The Undertaker and Kane are brothers and that wrestlers fight each other inside the ring for real. We know it's scripted, still, we watch because it's fun. But there's a limit to the WWE Universe's patience.

In what seemed like an attempt to bring back the feel of the Attitude Era, WWE started the love triangle storyline between Rusev, Bobby Lashley, and Lana. While it did ensure Rusev received some much-deserved TV time and earned natural babyface sympathy, the segments were just too painful to watch.

Out of nowhere, Lana appeared on stage with Lashley and started showing her affection toward him in a not-so PG manner. What followed were even more baffling segments and accusations that soon caused fans to lose interest. Unfortunately, it has been nearly three months now and WWE does not look to be ending the storyline anytime soon.

Both Rusev and Bobby Lashley are two exceptionally talented WWE Sueprstars who could have been utilized in a better way. We are yet to get a Lashley-Lesnar feud, and Rusev Day is so over that fans would even love to see him win the 2020 Royal Rumble. No matter how much they try to make us believe it, we know it's a storyline and by all means, it needs to end soon.
