Negative Feedback Begins Over The Rusev/Lana Storyline Angle

Thanks to Gregg UK for passing this newsbit along:

The UK’s Daily Mail has an article up, discussing Lana’s promo from the WWE Battleground PPV. They note that she used the line “You blame Russia for current events?” to spark outrage in light of the recent Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 disaster. Here is an excerpt from the article…

In a show last night, the characters ‘Lana’ and ‘Alexander Rusev’ launched into an anti-American rant in which they made reference to the flight MH17 being shot down and hailed Russian president Vladimir Putin for ‘making fools’ out of the U.S.

The Rusev and Lana roles often use Cold War-style rhetoric as part of their act, but their mention of last week’s MH17 disaster, in which 298 people died, has shocked the wrestling community.
