4. Rusev
‘The Bulgarian Brute’ had one of the best heel runs ever in the WWE back in 2014, but things went downhill for him ever since his loss to John Cena at WrestleMania 31.
After losing to Cena, he was used frequently but wasn’t the threat he used to be with his Russian gimmick.
After several years of random storylines, Rusev wad paired up with Aiden English in 2018 and surprisingly, he got very over with the fans with his Rusev Day gimmick.
However, WWE did not capitalize on the opportunity and broke up the team of Rusev and English a few months later.
He’s currently feuding with Bobby Lashley in a feud over his wife, Lana. From the reaction of the fans, it’s clear that none of them are interested in it. Rusev might not be interested in it as well, but he still agreed to do it.
This is not the first time WWE has used Rusev and Lana against each other. They did the same back in 2015 when they paired Lana up with Dolph Ziggler.
There had been rumors of both Rusev and Lana leaving WWE this year, but Rusev made his return a couple of months ago to surprise the fans.
However, it doesn’t look like he’ll stay for much longer judging by the way he’s being booked.
