1) Vince McMahon’s Feelings About The Lashley-Lana Arrest
According to a report from WrestlingNews.co, Vince McMahon was a big fan of the Bobby Lashley and Lana arrest segment that took place on RAW this week.
Here is an excerpt from the report:
I was told that Vince McMahon loved how everything played out on Raw this week. The arrest angle was something that was approved days ago and there were little changes made to that part of the script.
“Vince loves everything about this story,” said a WWE source. “The numbers are above average for these segments so they will do them until people stop caring.”
I was told that McMahon sees this storyline the way people would look over to see a car wreck. The storyline might make you cringe but you will keep watching…at least that is how McMahon feels. He also looks at the numbers for these segments and feels that Lana is generating real heel heat and not “go away” heat. Rusev has been getting praise backstage for the work he’s been doing.
Lashley vs Rusev is also expected to be added to the TLC PPV.
My Take: I am a Rusev fan, so hopefully this storyline leads to him getting over as a babyface in a big way. I can’t say that I have loved this storyline but it has been killing it in Youtube views.
