Loser: Rusev

Did you know a top WWE Superstar just wrestled outside the company? More details HERE
This angle just gets worse with each passing week. This time, Lana faked a pregnancy (announcing that she was carrying Rusev's child) only for the "Bulgarian Brute" to fall to an ambush by Bobby Lashley.
Lana then told everyone that she was never pregnant and it was all a ruse.
If this angle is designed to humiliate Rusev, it's working, although it reflects poorly on the company more so than him. With Rusev's contract status still up in the air, one has to wonder if this is a coercive attempt to get him to re-sign or failing that, dent his value elsewhere.
Think back to two years ago, when Rusev was among the most popular stars in the company with the Rusev Day act which proved to be a hit. WWE ended it for no real reason. Apparently, this is better.
It's stuff like this which is the reason why more fans are losing faith in the company at a faster pace than ever before.
