#1 Rusev (WrestleMania 31)

A very happy Rusev Day!

WrestleMania 31 was a pretty strong show when it came to spectacular entrances. Triple H had his memorable Terminator-themed entrance while Bray Wyatt walked to the ring through a group of creepy, dancing scarecrows. Not to mention Sting’s entrance with the Japanese Taiko drummers, which was strange, but still pretty cool.

Rusev, however, had a tank. Do I really need to say any more?

Prior to his match with John Cena, Rusev had been built up as a monster heel that looked set for a bright future in the company. As such, the Bulgarian Brute was brought into the spotlight in March 2015 in one of the most grandiose manners imaginable. The militant European Superstar rode into the building on an army tank.

In spite of the immense and amazing entrance, the proceeding match would be the beginning of a downward spiral. His unfortunate few months spent across the ring from John Cena, including a loss at WrestleMania 31, ground his momentum to a halt, and he has never quite gotten it back.

Rusev obviously had a brief career revival with his "Rusev Day" gimmick, but through no fault of his own he was launched into the main event spot that many people believed he deserved. The Bulgarian has disappeared from WWE TV recently and many fans believe (or at least hope) that he may be on his way out of the company when his current contract expires.

But hey, at least he can always say he rode a tank into WrestleMania.
