WWE Battleground 2017: 5 twists that can happen at the PPV

#3 Rusev defeats John Cena

Rusev deserves better

Rusev has been shortchanged when it comes to his pushes. Despite his excellent performances, he can never seem to get the company to invest in him as a monster heel who dominates the main event scene.

Case in point, the angle that was scrapped earlier this year where Ru Ru was seen demanding a WWE Championship opportunity. Why was that abandoned without any explanation? Instead of that, he gets saddled with yet another anti-USA angle with Mr USA himself, John Cena.

But, what if this is a blessing in disguise and the Bulgarian Brute does the unthinkable to actually get the most improbable of victories against The Leader of the Cenation and the entire country that is the United States of America?

It could be the perfect starting point for a man who has been constantly overlooked to become the main event heel he was born to be.
