WWE diva Lana facing 'nuclear heat', former NXT Tag team champion Wesley Blake' arrest uncovered

Lana’s WWE future is on the rocks

- WWE diva Lana, who’s famous for her Russian sympathising character on the franchise, has cheesed off the WWE’s top brass as well as her colleagues with her recent posts on social networking site Twitter, which included her slamming fellow diva and colleague Paige.

WWE chief Vince McMahon is reportedly displeased with Lana’s Instagram post, announcing her real life engagement to Miroslav Barnyashev aka Rusev, which ended up throwing a spanner in the works of McMahon’s storyline involving a feud between her and Rusev.

The 30-year-old-old added fuel to the fire when she also took to social networking site Twitter to launch a personal attack on Paige, going so far as to call her a bully, which attracted criticism from other WWE divas.

Making backstage events public is an extremely unwise move by any wrestler, but WWE seems to have turned Lana’s tweets into an angle, which may be a form of damage control.

Ticking off Vince McMahon and other WWE top brass is usually the death knell for any wrestler, and the outcome of Lana’s actions remains to be seen, but it’s possible that WWE will use her impending marriage to Rusev to weave out another storyline.

- In other news, WWE NXT hot shot Wesley Blake may have a lot of explaining to do after website Pro Wrestling Street discovered that he was arrested for DUI on 3rd July this year. A video is also in the possession of the site, which shows Blake declining to take a breath test.

The wrestler initially pleaded not guilty, but has seemingly given in and is ready to complete some sort of community service as well as a rehabilitation class, which will see the charged against him dropped provided he complies.

Whether WWE is aware of the incident is still unknown, but needless to say that the franchises’ top brass will be extremely unhappy once they find out.

The Texas native, whose real name is Cory James Weston, has been a part of WWE since 2013 and is a one time NXT Tag Team Champion along with Buddy Murphy. Below is the video in which Blake is seen refusing to take a breath test:
