Rusev is setting the record straight about one of the most talked-about moments of his WWE career watching his real-life wife Lana kiss another man on television. During his interview with Chris Van Vliet, the former United States Champion was asked about the awkward reality of the Bobby Lashley storyline, which featured Lana publicly aligning with Lashley while still married to Rusev in real life. Van Vliet pointed out the obvious tension of the situation but Rusev made it clear he never viewed it through a personal lens. He compared the angle to Hollywood storylines, explaining that professional wrestling is no different from film or television. For Rusev, the key was not letting real emotion interfere with performance. He explained that taking it personally would only create problems. The storyline featured dramatic wedding interruptions, cake smashing, and public confrontations but behind the scenes, Rusev says it was simply business. Now that hes back in WWE, the conversation around that era continues to resurface. But for Rusev, theres no bitterness just perspective. Do you think you could separate real life from storyline in a situation like that? Or would it be impossible to keep it strictly business? Drop your thoughts below and join the discussion.
