Rusev Makes Announcement for “Monday Night Raw”

If you’re strong enough, you can win a brand new car.

WWE superstar Rusev posted a message on his Twitter account issuing a challenge for tonight’s episode of “Monday Night Raw.” In a 20-second video, “The Bulgarian Brute” said that anyone who can successfully body slam him will win a brand new Maserati GranTurismo.

He also mentions in the tweet that “Raw” is emulating from Nashville, Tennessee, and refers to it as his “his city.” This is due to the fact that he resides there with his fiancee, Lana.

It is most likely that this storyline will have something to do with the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal that will take place at WrestleMania.

This would not be the first time that a body slam challenge has taken place in WWE. One of the most famous occurrences of this event was when Lex Luger successfully body slammed the then WWE Champion Yokozuna on July 4, 1993, aboard the USS Intrepid. As a result, Luger received a title shot at “SummerSlam,” in which he came up short.

Editor’s Note:

I’m surprised that Rusev even knows how to pronounce Maserati GranTurismo. Either way, I’m glad that he is doing something outside of the League of Nations. Rusev is a good in-ring talent, and if booked properly once again, could be a major player in WWE.
