Rusev is a guy who can step away for 1-2 years and come back as the champ. The crowd would go fukking crazy if Rumble 2023 you hear "It's Ruuuseeev Daayyy" This could be the best thing to happen to him in a while. Allows for a character rejuvenation. No matter where he goes he's going to get that push right out of the gate.
2-3 years and he is forgotten. There is no crowd now and he isn’t damn Cena or Bautista . Comeback as champ? 24/7 is his ceiling but you got him as a champion? Rusev is mid card at his best.

Plus, Bryan and Daniel where allowed to be relatable characters while Russv was always an Eastern European stereotypical caricature that is out of touch with modern audiences.
Bullshyt here he is embracing the bisexual life.

Here he is getting shytted on by Bobby. Guys say he can’t cut a promo but Bobby was killing it here.

Here is being a goof with Jose.

im still hoping he can become a star out of all of the bunch. FTR is looking like some regular guys so it's kinda whatever for them for the time being. All the people who went to Impact RIP. Rusev might still have a chance but it just depends on where he signs and how he's booked. He should go to AEW and immediately destroy Cody and become the TNT champion or go right after Moxley. He has to win though. Give Miro the AEW strap and let him hold onto it for a year until Kenny is ready or some shyt. Make it feel like it's worth something.
People talking about @Bryan Danielson being the biggest aew nuthugger. I disagree, you are the biggest aew nuthugger

Okay. Kofi got himself over. Daniel got himself over. So did Otis. Rusev should have a title run correct? Rusev is lazy. He is an underachiever. Lana hurt him because she wants to be a star so bad that he started to believe he was a star without putting in the work.
Kofi got over huge initially feuding with Orton and got punished and pushed down the card until he got over again with New Day and it still took 5 years after before he got his moment which was originally supposed to go to Mustafa Ali anyway.

Daniel Bryan? Do we really need to take the stroll down memory lane on how they went out of their way to sabatage him for YEARS?

And you’re basically making a case FOR Rusev for being a very versatile performer.

Breh... he has Covid. Signing somewhere is probably the furthest thing from his mind right now and companies are probably playing "wait and see" with his recovery and how he'll look/feel if he manages to beat it.

If Jinder Mahal and Drew McIntyre can leave and come back bigger, so can Rusev. 2-3 years is enough to get the Lana/Lashley heat off of him. It's obvious they sabotaged him the last few years after he kept getting himself over, but he's a beast who can go hard in the ring. Plus the amount of money WWE has put into Rusev. He'll get that Drew Mc treatment when he returns, because he is going to get himself over big time, no matter where he goes.

Where are these matches where he is a “beast” in the ring? :skip:

Uncertain grounds
wwe boxed him into a corner with his gimmick

it would be interesting to see him completely rebranded elsewhere..i think he can make it..

however..auto divorce if he signs elsewhere and lana is still in wwe unless they are legit swingers and dont care
