Continuing the string of wrestlers being cleared from injury in the past couple of days, Rusev has now been cleared to return by doctors, according to Pro Wrestling Sheet.
Rusev underwent shoulder surgery in March and is now officially cleared for action.
WWE seemed to be doing an angle last month where Rusev demanded a title match from Shane McMahon at Money in the Bank, but that angle was then dropped without explanation, with some speculating that Jinder Mahal pretty much took his place for whatever WWE had immediately planned.
