Rusev is perhaps one of the most underutilized stars in WWE. He’s strong, he’s agile, he can work with just about anyone and most importantly, he’s hilarious. The former United States Champion took to Twitter recently to declare that he’s come up with a new exercise routine that will see him drop working out entirely for 30 days.
In Bulgaria they say The rest makes the champion. It's time to take time off working out. 30 days and counting.

If what they say in Bulgaria is true, it looks like we could be seeing Rusev with a championship in the next 30 days.
One thing we won’t be seeing Rusev with over the next 30 days is his long hair that he’s been sporting since he debuted on the main roster. The Bulgarian Brute has cut off most of his hair and he told fans on Instagram that it’s gone, and he likes it.
Last week on SmackDown Live, AJ Styles and Luke Harper were the last two men standing in the ring during the number 1 contender’s battle royal. Unfortunately the finish was controversial because both men hit the ground at the same time so there was no winner.
This week AJ Styles is set to face Luke Harper in a one on one match and the winner will go on to challenge Bray Wyatt for the WWE Title. AJ Styles says that tonight he will secure his spot and then move on to the main event of WrestleMania.
Tonight I secure the spot that has always belonged to me. I'm going to main event @WrestleMania & win back the @WWE Championship. #SDLive

For those wondering how Rusev got Lana, the guy cleans up pretty good.
