A short while before SummerSlam 2018, reports started coming out suggesting that WWE Superstar Rusev was on his way to leave WWE following The Biggest Party of the Summer. Rusev had done nothing of note for a long time at that point. His "Rusev Day" gimmick had become a thing of the past, and he hadn't received a main event run as the WWE Universe was expecting. WrestleMania 34 was the last straw, where Rusev had failed to win the United States title despite being super over with the fans. Around the time these rumors were making the rounds, Rusev cleared the air while interacting with a fan on Twitter.

Rusev's remaining WWE run left a lot to be desired

Rusev remained a mainstay in WWE for just over a year. The first half of his remaining stint was a forgettable one, and then he was then put into a storyline with Bobby Lashley, after his real-life partner Lana joined forces with The All Mighty on WWE TV. The angle didn't do much for Rusev, with Lashley coming out victorious on most occasions. Rusev was finally let go by WWE in April 2020.
