Heading into WrestleMania 31, a white-hot Rusev defended his United States title against John Cena at Fastlane.

The back and forth lasted for a good while with Rusev failing to pin Cena on multiple occasions. It took a distraction by Lana to give Rusev an opportunity to hit a low blow to Cena. The cheap shot was followed by Rusev's signature move, The Accolade.

Cena was well known for never tapping out to his opponents, and this match wasn't going to be an exception. It took a while before Cena started to fade into unconsciousness. Finally, the referee stopped the match and awarded the win to Rusev via submission.

This led to another match at Mania, with Rusev entering the stadium in a tank. Unfortunately, he couldn't beat Cena this time and went on to lose his title, after Cena hit an Attitude Adjustment on Rusev.
