#3 Rusev and Lana swerve Bobby Lashley
Trending
So, thanks to the storyline between Rusev, Lana, and Bobby Lashley, Rusev is finally getting over as a babyface and while the reaction to the segments has been brutal on Twitter, the same storyline has certainly made Rusev a very popular babyface. He is a lot more popular now than he ever was at any point during his career.
This is why the official divorce proceedings that have been planned for this week's show will certainly not go as planned, in my opinion. While I don't want to necessarily see this unfold, I have a feeling Rusev and Lana will swerve Bobby Lashley, to prove that they were always on the same side.
I know that this may make Rusev a heel again but I doubt that, in the age of the internet, the audience will buy into the idea of a happily married couple divorcing on-screen at all. It will also bring Lana and Rusev back together, which is when all the magic truly happens, does it not.
Maybe this will allow Bobby Lashley to slowly slip out of this storyline. Maybe he challenges Brock Lesnar at the Royal Rumble.
