I guess that WWE is trying to push the envelope, but I'm not sure I'm the target audience. In their attempt to seem edgy, they come across as a company that's trying way too much to get a cheap pop, by using shocking words on a supposedly 'live' broadcast.
I'm all for the basic idea of Lana lying about her pregnancy, to invite Rusev into a trap. It's just the way that this storyline has been carried out and how far it's gone that is just too much.

Bobby Lashley has been very vocal about the fact that he wants to take on Brock Lesnar in a singles match. Rusev could be doing so much in the roster too, mixing it up with the likes of Drew McIntyre for instance.
However, if you guys feel otherwise, you can certainly let me know your opinion in the comments section.
