Rusev’s gimmick is undoubtedly the hottest act in WWE right now
Rusev’s gimmick is undoubtedly the hottest act in WWE right now. Chants of ‘Rusev Day’ fill the arena every week on Smackdown Live. WWE need to take full advantage of this opportunity and push Rusev as a strong mid-card wrestler.
He definitely deserves another title run in the near future. It is the right time for Rusev to win the United States Champion for the third time. He is the perfect opponent for Bobby Roode and I predict that if the two men meet in the squared circle in the near future, you can expect a fantastic contest.

A wrestling aficionado since childhood, Sunil used to imitate his favorite wrestlers as a young kid, and started writing professionally about the sport via Sportskeeda’s revenue-sharing opportunity.
Sunil admires former world champions AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, and Kenny Omega for their ability to consistently deliver great matches as well as entertain crowds with their mic skills.
If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
