Went from being a monster heel to fucking dancing around in a fucking snickers commercial? Seriously wtf? I dont know how the managed to screw things up so badly with this guy.
I knew Rusev's career was over the night he interrupted that Cena promo that kicked off their feud. Was it at Fastlane or at the Royal Rumble? Yeah, then. He was doomed form then.
And yet everyone blows Cena these days like he's the second coming of Jesus. Don't forget how many careers he's fucked, because I won't. He's left a path of destruction, no matter how many t-shirts he sells.
It's a fucking commercial? Jesus christ. Up up down down has already exposed rusev as a fun loving dude.lighten up and get your panties in a bunch when his jobbing to a female
They need to make him a face.
1) Crowd loved him during Reign's feud
2) He's funny.
3) Awesome body and flexibility.
4) He's a good man/lover on Total Divas.
5) America does suck sometime(I be feeling him)
He should be a badass face, not one that panders to the crowd all the time and be cheesy and lame but cool. Have him still beat people up but beating on heels instead of faces, and cutting intense promos. He can still be funny at times and crack jokes but to a limit. Perfect time would be when he comes back from injury.
Meh… I don't have a problem with it. Rusev is somewhat of a comedy character now. I just hope he gets a push when he comes back from injury because I usually find him and Lana really entertaining.
Rusev's talented enough to rehab his image very quickly if given the opportunity. I think he should be right at the top of the card, but if they see him as a utility player, it's his job to be the best damn utility player he can be. I don't think there's any heat on him, so if he keeps grinding, his time will come again.
Just watched Wrestlemania 31. Cena beat him as a "Wrestlemania moment", but he came out on a fucking tank. You don't put that level of spectacle into a talent you see nothing in.
He was doing okay before Reigns beat him twice and took his US title. But he still could have salvaged some sort of credibility after that had he done literally anything besides tag teaming with Jinder Mahal to put over Enzo and Cass. Now that that team is done, he's directionless and has no credibility.
Terrible, terrible booking by WWE.
he lost a feud with Roman did his job and is now not even in the midcard.
they first invest in you then after the feud is over they dont have a plan for you anymore. sad.
SmackDown once again is the show where Rusev should go just like Sami & Cesaro.
That marriage to Lana really pissed off mgmt. I think people are jealous of him. His wife is hotter than both Vince McMahon and Triple H's and that probably irked them.

Rusev's first year was brilliantly booked. Working his way up the roster from Big E, to Jack Swagger, to Mark Henry, to Big Show, to being in the final two men at Royal Rumble 2015 (he lasted fucking ages in that Rumble), they established him a great monster heel. The Cena feud kind of fucked all that up. Until then, he was steamrolling through competition and people were enjoying it. When he lost to Cena, and when Lana stopped being his valet, he lost all of his momentum. That never ending feud with Dolph Ziggler was the drizzling shts as well. Personally, I wish he'd never had that Cena feud and carried on barrelling through the competiton; I'd rather have seen Rusev win the Andre the Giant Memorial than lose to Cena at WM31.
