WWE Plans Rusev Sheamus Feud on Raw

Rusev has made a notable return to WWE Raw after a five-year absence, signing a two-year contract and quickly reestablishing his presence with a win over Otis and an upcoming match against Akira Tozawa. WWE is reportedly considering a new feud between Rusev and Sheamus, two former United States Champions with a shared history, including their time together in the League of Nations faction. Sheamus recently returned from injury, signed a five-year contract extension, and has been actively competing, setting the stage for a potentially intense and physical rivalry. This proposed program aims to leverage their aggressive styles and past storyline dynamics, offering a compelling, non-title feud to enhance Raw’s midcard scene. Additionally, Rusev’s wife, CJ Perry (formerly Lana), has signed a Legends contract, possibly hinting at greater storyline involvement. While the feud has been pitched but not officially confirmed, it has generated excitement among fans and insiders alike for its potential to add depth and excitement to WWE programming.
