Rusev is pulling back the curtain on one of WWEs most controversial relationship storylines and according to him, it was always supposed to end on the biggest stage possible. During his appearance on Chris Van Vliets interview, Rusev opened up about the explosive angle involving Lana and Bobby Lashley, including the shocking wedding segments and weeks of on-screen betrayal. While fans remember the chaos, Rusev says there was a clear long-term destination. When asked how the storyline was originally pitched to him, he didnt hesitate. That was the plan build the emotional drama and pay it off at WrestleMania. Instead, the COVID-19 pandemic and WWEs subsequent roster cuts ended the program before it could reach that final chapter. Rusev admitted the storyline wasnt necessarily his personal favorite, but he understood the structure and where it was headed. Instead of a WrestleMania grudge match, the angle abruptly stopped when Rusev was released during the pandemic era. What was meant to be a redemption arc on the grandest stage never materialized. Looking back, its clear Rusev saw the bigger picture. The betrayal, the wedding segments, the chaos it was all meant to fuel a massive comeback moment.
