Rusev (Miro in AEW) has reportedly signed a new contract with WWE, according to PWInsider. He was seen at WWE Headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut, indicating a potential return to WWE programming soon.
Multiple sources confirmed his presence, suggesting the visit was to finalize details for his comeback. The timeline for his on-screen return is currently unknown.
CJ Perry aka Lana was not present during his visit.
For those who don’t know, Lana and Rusev have rekindled their romance, reaffirming their commitment to each other after a period of separation. The pair, who initially parted ways over a year ago, have officially reunited and even renewed their wedding vows.
According to exclusive details shared with TMZ Sports, the spark was reignited in June 2024. Miro returned to the United States following a trip to his native Bulgaria, prompting the couple to reconnect. As the months passed, their bond grew stronger, culminating in Perry traveling to Bulgaria to spend the Christmas holidays with Miro.
Their renewed affection led them to a small, intimate ceremony at a church in Los Angeles, where they reaffirmed their vows and solidified their commitment to their marriage. The couple is now living together, dividing their time between the bustling city of Los Angeles and the serene landscapes of Bulgaria.
Perry and Miro had initially separated in the winter of 2023, after having tied the knot in a July 2016 ceremony. However, they revealed that they never legally filed for divorce, leaving the door open for their eventual reconciliation.
Below are Rusev’s top accomplishments in WWE so far:
– 3x WWE United States Champion
– 1x AEW TNT Champion
Vince McMahon Made Lana Kiss Dolph Ziggler In Front Of Rusev Backstage
Dolph Ziggler shared a backstage story about Vince McMahon’s involvement in his WWE love triangle storyline with Lana and Rusev.
Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Ziggler recalled that McMahon required rehearsals for the kissing scenes between him and Lana to ensure they were believable—even having them kiss in front of Rusev in a small room.
Here’s what Ziggler said:
“I think Vince is rewarding me instead of giving me winning matches or championships was to be like, ‘Hey, he’s with this girl now.’ I think that was my reward, was that I got a girlfriend at work.
We’re in a very small room with (Lana and Rusev) and Vince is saying like, ‘Okay, we need you to be passionate together,’ and we have to practice kissing in a very small room with her husband there with Vince watching like this with a pencil (gestures) and you’re like, ‘Oh God.’”
