As reported earlier this week, Rusev will be out for a while due to shoulder surgery. The surgery apparently already took place some time last week and he will be out of action for about two months, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
Rusev has been needing the surgery for a while and based on the timing (WrestleMania season), it seems like it couldn’t wait any longer.
The surgery also explains the abrupt breakup of Rusev and Jinder Mahal and why Big Show squashed him at Fastlane.
Lana has been working out and wrestling at the WWE Performance Center in the meantime.
