Rusev, the Bulgarian star, has been absent from WWE TV for over a month, but fans can expect him to be enjoying the holiday season as he celebrates his 40th birthday on Christmas Day. Despite not being utilized effectively since his return to WWE earlier this year after a stint in AEW, Rusev has shown glimpses of his potential to reclaim his status as the Bulgarian Brute if given the opportunity.
The reason for his current absence remains unclear, but many fans anticipate his appearance in the upcoming Royal Rumble event next month. However, it is uncertain if he will make his return to the main roster before the show, as he has not been seen since last month.
There have been ongoing rumors suggesting that Rusev’s wife, Lana, could also be making a return to WWE following her husband’s comeback. Despite their personal ups and downs, the couple has expressed their desire to reunite in the wrestling world. It will be intriguing to see if WWE decides to bring them back together, considering the presence of other power couples in the company such as Zelina Vega and Aleister Black on SmackDown, as well as the potential reunion of Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins.
Lana played a significant role in elevating Rusev’s career when they first teamed up in NXT, and she could potentially have a similar impact if given the chance once again. The dynamic between the two could add an interesting dimension to WWE storylines, especially with the current landscape of couples in the company.
As fans eagerly await the return of Rusev and the potential reunion with Lana, it will be interesting to see how their storyline unfolds in the future. Stay tuned for more WWE updates and news from Sportskeeda, your ultimate source for all things wrestling.
