3) Rusev Is FINALLY Back On WWE Television!!!
It has been a long time since Rusev has been on WWE Television. If you have followed up with the latest rumors, you know that Rusev has been back from injury for the past several weeks but hasn’t been used by WWE.
Rusev made his return this week and interrupted John Cena. Rusev expressed his displeasure with not receiving the same amount of commercials as Cena did to advertise his return:
“Where is your comeback commercials, Rusev? YOU DESERVE THAT!” – @RusevBUL wondered while he was rehabbing his injury… #SDLive pic.twitter.com/IxRt6qe3Pc
