After taking two high profile losses in a row and with nowhere on the WrestleMania card for him to go, things don't look too good for Rusev.

He remains immensely popular, but this can't last forever. Perhaps a victory in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal (if it even happens this year) will keep him afloat.

Or perhaps he'll just have to wait and hope for a better post-WrestleMania 2018, the odds of which are dicey at best.

What makes Sting special? His first AEW opponent opens up RIGHT HERE.
