“Handsome” Rusev Is No Longer Just a Nickname

Leave to the “Bulgarian Brute” to embrace his core values. Or in this case, the nickname that he gave to himself.

Rusev has posted a new photo to Instagram, showing off a new look in which he has cut off most of his hair:

This new look could be connected to his latest “Handsome” Rusev gimmick. It has been previously reported that he stopped wearing the protective gear that has been on his face, which has been guarding and protecting his recently broken nose.

A new haircut is not uncommon for the “Bulgarian Brute.” He posted a photo of himself with straightened hair on Instagram a couple of months ago.

Editor’s Note:

I like this! Hopefully they will address this either on Sunday or the following night on “Monday Night Raw,” and really play up this “Handsome” gimmick. Rusev has always been one of the most entertaining and physically dominant talents on the roster, and this change in character could bring his game to a whole new level.
