Winner: Rusev
Trending
Speaking of breaking trends, it looks like WWE is trying its best to showcase the strengths of an underrated performer in Rusev. The guy has a great personality and that's what the spotlight was on last night, even in Shinsuke Nakamura's promo trying to belittle the Bulgarian Brute afterward.
The two will finally clash for the United States Championship next week. Hopefully Rusev wins. Nakamura has done nothing with the title since winning it all the way back in July. Rusev not only deserves to be rewarded for his organic popularity, but a victory for him would also open up the mid card in a way that hasn't been seen in a while, especially with some of the performers that got a highlight in the main event on the night.
Let's hope this commitment to change makes itself felt in that regard. If there's anyone that can benefit from WWE moving away from trope, it's Rusev.
