The Bulgarian Brute has been off WWE television for quite some time now, as the former US Champion is enjoying his vacation from in-ring action. While some reports tried to suggest that Rusev and Lana may not be re-signing with WWE, these rumors have since been rubbished.
Even so, there are no concrete details regarding when the Bulgarian powerhouse will return to action. It can be said that even though Rusev reached the zenith of his popularity during the 'Rusev Day' gimmick, the 33-year-old will surely bounce back and make a major impact once he returns.

Rusev recently shared a photo on his social media which shows him in a brand new look: The last time he had shared an update, he did not have his beard and looked a lot like Bobby Roode aka Robert Roode.
As can be seen, Rusev has gotten rid of his french beard and now sports a completely clean-shaven look. It will be interesting to see whether this is merely Rusev experimenting with his look or could it be an indication of a return soon as many Superstars make their return with a new look.
