Apr 12, 2018

WWE announced that Chris Jericho has replaced Rusev as the Undertaker’s opponent for a Casket Match at “Greatest Royal Rumble” in Saudi Arabia on April 27.

WWE did an angle where Lana posted on Twitter that she “refuses” to let Rusev compete in a casket match.

Jericho was previously announced as part of the 50-man Royal Rumble match.

Rusev poked at the match announcement on Twitter yesterday, saying “bury me softly, brother.”

He was also interviewed by TMZ earlier today, saying that he was going to crush the Undertaker.
