Vince McMahon has been a huge fan of the acting prowess shown during the much-maligned Rusev/Lana/Bobby Lashley storyline on WWE Raw.
Bulgarian Brute Rusev spoke to
Reel Talkerand revealed that acting classes prepared him for the storyline and the segments involved: "Acting got me prepared for promos, especially for this program. I've never been complimented for my promos before."
Rusev then explained how Vince McMahon himself complimented his acting skills: "I remember after the first few weeks, Vince [McMahon] pulled me aside and was like, 'This is great acting performance.' I've never been complimented for my acting before, it's always been about my work in the ring. To hear that I'm closing the full circle with the wrestling, look, and promo part. It's good to hear. The acting has helped with my promos."
Rusev teamed with Liv Morgan in a losing effort to Bobby Lashley and Lana on this week's Raw. Lana and Liv will face off in singles action during Monday's episode.
