Rusev's 5 Best WWE Moments
He rode into WrestleMania on a tank!
1. One Last Title Win
More than a year after Rusev Day took off, the appeal had faded, and Rusev went back to wandering rather aimlessly on SmackDown. That's why it was a pleasant surprise to see the two-time United States champion add reign number three to his collection.
In a match that aired on Christmas night 2018, Rusev defeated eventual tag team partner Shinsuke Nakamura in a 23 minute match to regain the title he'd first won four years earlier. The reign lasted only six weeks, but it was a feelgood moment for fans of Rusev.
