WWE might end Rusev/Lana storyline

HPC · Jul 21, 2014

I read this yesterday, but thought "nah, aint gonna happen, they are too over as heels right now."

But, after Lana brought up the airline shoot down, a lot of news corps are writing about how distasteful it is.

Reminds me of Muhammad Hassan's angle with Taker years ago that got him taken off TV and eventually released.

I love the Rusev and Lana storyline so I hope they can figure out a way to keep them going without pissing off their sponsors and leading to them being repackaged or taken off TV

It would be a travesty if they did.

What would that mean for the upcoming Smoky the Bear/Kane feud at Summerslam over Kane's careless use of fire?

It's wrestling. It has always borrowed from current events for storylines.

WWE may have canceled plans for a follow-up match between Rusev and Jack Swagger. The plan was for the two to face each other at several PPVs but the rivalry isn’t expected to continue. The decision was made during creative meetings at RAW yesterday.

It’s unknown if the controversy over what Lana said at Battleground played a role in the decision, but it’s very possible.

WWF is *******. They've lost solar systems worth of money. May as well go all in and lose it all !

Didn't anybody tell Lana to specifically NOT mention the airplane crash?

Who would trust bad PR to an open mic from a newbie like Lana

I don't get it

Goes back to ALEXANDER Rusev is Bulgarian
Tattoo of Bulgaria in his arm
Push him as pro Bulgarian and anti-American
So just in case Russia starts WW3 they can Continue his storyline

Makes no sense to me

We're not still in the 80's Vince

And it will be pretty easy to screw up the whole new Nation of Domination with Xavier Woods

Well I'm glad they didn't end this partnership

Sorry or resurrecting old thread

I'm disappointed they didn't reincarnate the Nation of Domination, especially with the stuff going on in Ferguson. AT LEAST, this way, the WWE would be in the headlines. They're creative direction is so ****ing feeble. That and the Sting hype and excitement from Sunday is already dead. Ugh.

100% agreed!!!
They hinted that Kofi, big E and Xavier Woods would redo it

I was excited aaaaaaand it never happened

And now they are repackaging Xavier to a soul singing and dancing musician

When wwe recently let go of a funk music dancing wrestler walk
