Rusev is in the early stages of a very interesting storyline, where he is making demands in lieu of his in-ring return. Rusev is demanding a title shot at Money in the Bank, or he will leave the Smackdown Live roster... or so he says.

If there is a mutual agreement made and Rusev is added to the ladder match, it changes the entire element. Suddenly, it’s anyone's ballgame, so-to-speak, and Rusev would be a top candidate to walk away with the briefcase in tow.
