Modified Dec 11, 2019 05:28 GMT

CM Punk made his return to WWE Backstage tonight and had a bunch of interesting thoughts to share in regards to current WWE storylines. Punk gave his views on the ongoing Rusev-Lana-Bobby Lashley angle, and had an interesting booking idea for the same.

"They have a match, they have a blowoff, right? I don't think Rusev wants to be with Lana anymore on-screen, so Lana and Bobby go off and do their thing, but eventually, you know what... Lana grinds on the nerves, Bobby's sick of her. They have another divorce, ok. She gets another tag team, to go after Rusev and Bobby, who have become best friends, because they have this familiar.. this ex-wife.

"What they do at WrestleMania, they put Lana in a shark cage, because by WrestleMania, the new tag team is already so sick of Lana, that the loser of the match gets what's in the shark cage."

Now we want to see @CMPunk's entire plan for @LanaWWE & @RusevBUL happen. #WWEBackstage pic.twitter.com/xHs6g7CNHI

Judging by Punk's hilarious booking for the angle, it seems like he isn't much of a fan of this storyline. It would be interesting to see what the trio have to say in response to Punk's over-the-top idea for them at WrestleMania 36.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
