Rusev Tweets

As we noted earlier this week, a report claimed that Rusev, along with his wife Lana, had asked for their releases from WWE, after being unhappy with Rusev’s creative direction in the company.

Lana quickly took to Twitter to shoot down the report, and we were told by sources it was inaccurate. Rusev Tweeted the following today, which may or may not be a case of him merely trolling the internet:

I want to thank @WWE front office TR and everybody involved. THANK YOU
