Per the Observer...

Rusev’s Money in the Bank return angle was pulled followed the decision to put the WWE title on Jinder Mahal, per Wrestling Observer. There’s currently no story ready to bring him back.

Figured that was the case after Jinder won the title and they kept delaying Rusev's return.

Rusev gets fisted again

:bunk

Good job by WWE...

It's not like they can kill two birds with one stone and do the angle, which writes itself, between Jinder and Rusev, while also cementing Rusev as a legit title contender...

Poor Rusev. I VASTLY prefer him over Jinder tbh.

Poor Rusev. I VASTLY prefer him over Jinder tbh.

Rusev may be the far superior talent in the ring and on the mic, but he wouldn't have gotten the reaction Jinder gets.

I'm glad they went with The Maharaja, he looks like a star and evokes emotion from all :drose

 

[starsfan24]

Someone already posted it but I'm feeling the same way....so :mj2 Poor Ru Ru.

 

[Architect-Rollins]

Not sure why Vince hates Rusev so damn much. Can't be just because of Lana...but who knows.

 

[DGenerationMC]

No Machka in the Bank

Seriously

I mean, the two have heat already so this should have been a natural progression. Guess creative can't see through the "Evil Foreigner vs another Evil Foreigner" aspect. :cal

Feel badly for Rusev, but it's The Summer of Shanti.

Ahhhh! touché! Why've didn't i see it before?! It's so simple! Evil foreign heel vs evil foreign heel?! Americans wouldn't know who to cheer and who to boo! It would be pandemonium! People hanging from the rafters! Children sobbing! Women screaming! Grown men wetting themselves!

 

[InexorableJourney]

So Rusev is too good for the SDL midcard, but not good enough to challenge for the title.

WWE alternative logic.

 

[Donnie]

:mj2 ALL I want is Handsome RUSEV to win the WWE title, that's it, nothing more nothing less. Just give the man a chance and watch him knock it out of the park

They're actually going to have Cena beat Jinder, aren't they?

 

[bagodking]

Damn man, was really looking forward to RuRu vs Maharaja

 

[Jam]

They're actually going to have Cena beat Jinder, aren't they?

Yup, buckle up

 

[4everEyebrowRaisin]

But at least we got some hilarious memes out of this shitshow, right?

The ironic support for Jinder needs to stop. He's a garbage mid-90's WWF-tier champion.

 

[Buffy The Vampire Slayer]

Rusev continues to get screwed by this company. :fuckthis
