1) Vince McMahon’s Reaction To The Lana/Rusev Storyline.
The storyline between Rusev, Lana, and Bobby Lashley has been a big part of Monday Night RAW over the past several weeks. This storyline has been met with mixed reviews from fans.
So what does Vince McMahon think about this storyline?
According to a report from WrestlingNews.co, Vince is getting a major kick out of this angle. Here is an excerpt from their report:
Vince McMahon does not feel the same way about the angle. A source told me that McMahon gets a kick out of the storyline and feels that the negative reaction is just getting more heat on Lashley. Lashley has been getting the best out of Rusev but that will change soon. Another thing that is being seen as a positive about this angle is the YouTube numbers.
Although YouTube doesn’t bring in anything close to the TV revenue, the YouTube numbers are included in the social media stats that they use in their quarterly reports so anything that can boose their stats is something that is welcomed by McMahon.
It does appear that this storyline is killing it on Youtube. For example, the video of Lashley attacking Rusev (and making out with Lana on top of him) has over 7.3 million views.
