In this article, we look at a few signs which prove Aiden English hacked Lana

WWE SmackDown Live Superstar Lana recently revealed that her Instagram account had been hacked by unknown mischief-makers and that they'd been pulling an elaborate iPhone prank on her fans by means of her Instagram account. While her IG account seems to have been brought under her control once again, The Ravishing Russian is understandably livid over being hacked.

Lana addressed the hackers on both her Twitter as well as Instagram accounts and warned them for the same -- however, what makes this situation all the more intriguing is that her Instagram account being hacked seems to have come at a rather convenient time, so to speak.

In this era where digital promotion and media services reign supreme, the WWE much like several other corporate giants has been known to utilize the power of social media in order to promote its product and at times even use it to advance its TV storylines. Today, we are going to be looking at a few shockingly under-the-radar signs which prove that it was Aiden English who hacked Lana... While the following storyline is pure speculation on our part, it could possibly come to fruition very soon...


#5 Aiden English's stoicism

Firstly, the very fact that Aiden English betrayed his long-term tag team partner and close friend Rusev, in and of itself came as a huge shock to the WWE Universe. However, in the weeks that followed English went on to create a huge controversy with his "One Night in Milwaukee" fiasco -- accusing Lana of having an affair with him, behind Rusev's back. Now, while Lana eventually revealed the Milwaukee video in its entirety to the world; proving that there wasn't even a semblance of an affair between her and English, the latter's stance seems to have weakened to a great extent...or so we thought.

English is a cunning heel who, surprisingly enough, has been dominated in each and every battle he has had against Rusev over the past few weeks. Resultantly, The Drama King seems to be keeping a low profile courtesy the absolute drubbings he has been receiving from The Bulgarian Brute. Nevertheless, that may very well be because English has something even more sinister than the One Night in Milwaukee drama, in store for Rusev and Lana -- something we'll touch upon very soon...

#4 Lana's history with WWE and social media

Lana, whose real name is Catherine Joy Perry, has a rather interesting history with regard to the connection between her social media presence and her on-screen character in the WWE. A few years ago, Lana was involved in a storyline whereby she was dating Dolph Ziggler and had separated from Rusev.

However, in real-life, Lana continued dating Rusev and would eventually go on to marry the latter -- with said marriage being revealed by way of social media. Moreover, Lana's feud with Naomi, at a time when the latter held the WWE SmackDown Women's Championship, had also notably originated after The Ravishing Russian repeatedly insulted Naomi on social media.

With that being said, in the here and now, the WWE may very well have booked a storyline whereby Aiden English is the one who's engaging in the notorious act of hacking his former best friend Rusev's beloved wife Lana. And given Lana's history with her social media and its connection with WWE, the aforesaid theory could very well play out in front of our very eyes...

#3 The Shock Factor

Let's face it, the vast majority of professional wrestling fans, especially the hardcore fans of pro-wrestling and sports-entertainment organizations, oftentimes complain about the current generation's top stars breaking kayfabe on social media. After all, who could forget the photograph of Roman Reigns and Braun Strowman hanging out together as tourists while they were engaged in a heated rivalry with one another as part of RAW's top storyline!

However, while social media may more often than not serve as a kayfabe-breaking tool in modern-day professional wrestling, it could also conversely be used to lead the fans along and then swerve them with a huge shocker. Although Aiden English presently seems to be on the losing end of what has been a one-sided feud against Rusev, The Drama King could unveil part-deux of his mind-games and drop a hint that he perhaps knows the person who hacked Lana's Instagram account and trolled her fans...That brings us to...

#2 A good friend could be your worst enemy

Back when Aiden English aligned himself with Rusev in September of last year, the vast majority of fans, as well as industry experts, predicted that either of the two would turn on each other sooner rather than later. Well, we were all dead wrong!

Despite often times having to settle being the third wheel in "Rusev Day" as both Rusev and Lana continued to shine on SmackDown Live, English stuck by his tag team partner and Rusev Day eventually became one of the most over acts in the business today. That's all well and good, however, English shockingly turned heel on Rusev at a time when Rusev Day had reached a crescendo in its journey to the top -- in simple words, they were poised to reach great heights together.

Much like the old adage goes -- A good friend can make for your worst enemy -- English, having been a close friend of Rusev, undoubtedly knows the latter inside out. English is also well aware of the fact that there's likely nothing more precious to Rusev than his loyal wife Lana -- and by disrupting Lana's routine and composure, English knows that he'd surely get that coveted mental edge over his Bulgarian opponent...

#1 Dirt

Aiden English may have an ace up his sleeve

Remember when Aiden English sowed the seeds of the One Night in Milwaukee controversy? The time when he showed a rather cunningly edited version of his video in a Milwaukee hotel room with Lana?

It was around the time he revealed the aforesaid edited video that English strongly asserted that he has dirt on Rusev's beloved wife Lana. Now, while Lana eventually revealed the video in its entirety, and proved that nothing untoward really transpired in Milwaukee, you'd think that English has no other mental warfare weapons to hurt Rusev and Lana with.

Well, considering how Rusev vs. Aiden English still is one of the most important feuds on SmackDown Live right now, it only makes sense that the WWE would book English to have something more sinister up his sleeve. 'Dirt' is a funny term, since be it inside the ring or outside it, your rivals often times claim to have 'dirt' on you in a bid to perhaps throw you off your rhythm.

That is exactly what English plans on doing to Rusev and Lana. I, for one, wouldn't be surprised at all to see English eventually reveal the fact that he was the hacker responsible for temporarily taking control of Lana's Instagram account and trying to con her fans -- perhaps revealing a few more controversial videos and photos throwing shade at both Rusev and Lana!
