Miro had a decent run with WWE as Rusev, but his run came to an end when he was released from his contract earlier this year.
One of the most successful eras of his WWE run took place when he aligned himself with Aiden English and launched the Rusev Day gimmick. Rusev Day caught on very quickly, and Aiden English seemed to be a crucial part of the gimmick’s success.
Miro recently spoke to Chris Van Vliet about his WWE run, and he noted that Aiden English was really disliked.
“It is what it is. It brings me down because they really disliked Aiden [English] and I told them that because everybody was scared to tell them. And I was like, no I’ll tell them because we’re really trying to highlight Aiden in a few spots and they told us no. Aiden was supposed to do this dive and they said no dive. Okay, what about baseball slide? No baseball slide. Then I got pulled to the side and told me we can’t highlight Aiden. Like, what? How does that even make sense? I was so mad, and that’s what I’m saying. Once again, you can’t do this, you can’t do that. But, why he can? Why’s do you stop us from getting the reaction that he wants? That’s what p**ses me off. I don’t get p**sed off about… it should have been this, it should have been that. No! It’s about, you’re taking opportunities that… we are having a match already and you’re stopping him from showcasing. I don’t understand.”
