This week’s sit down interview with Michael Cole features WWE Diva Lana, and the following are some highlights:
-Cole brings up Lana falling on Raw Monday night and Lana said it was very embarrassing. She said she felt bad that it cost Dolph Ziggler his match, and was embarrassed that it happened in front of Rusev.
-Cole asks Lana if during her time with Rusev the two of them had more than just a business relationship. Lana said the two became very close, but that Rusev was very different back then. She said his aggression as of late is new to Rusev, and it’s not something that she wants to be around. She questions how she can inspire women and children while with Rusev if he’s behaving like that, so she had to stand up and walk away from him.
-As for Ziggler, Lana said she doesn’t know what the future holds, but he is kind to her, and respects her. She said they read books together, and he’s funny and they have a good time.
-Rusev then interrupts the interview and asks if he can talk to Lana.
-Rusev said he wanted to apologize for the last time they talked, and that her falling off the stage was an accident. He said he would never do anything to hurt Lana, and he said his reaction of laughter is part of his culture. He asks that Lana not judge him for how he was raised. He brought up him breaking his ankle and her falling being a sign that fate needs them to get back together. Rusev says the two of them can fix everything and go back to their winning ways.
-An emotional Lana just responds by saying “it’s over” and Rusev loses it and goes off on Michael Cole and trashes the set:
