It can’t last forever. There are some stories that keep going long after their expiration date and it shows very clearly every time they are on screen. Maybe the story is played out and continuing on company orders or maybe it just wasn’t that good in the first place, but for some reason it doesn’t work in the end. That was the case with a big story over the winter and now its second half may be ending.
Back in September 2019, Lana and Bobby Lashley began an affair, leaving Lana’s husband Rusev crushed. A long running feud began, during which Lana and Rusev divorced with Lana marrying Lashley instead. It was a long, drawn out feud and while it had an audience on YouTube, it certainly was not universally praised. Now things have changed again in a big way.
During this week’s Monday Night Raw, Lana came to the ring to interrupt an MVP/Lashley promo. Lana claimed that she and Lashley had been on a roll since MVP got involved. Lashley disagreed and said it was his success while Lana only wanted fame. An argument broke out and Lashley said he wanted a divorce. Lana was devastated for the rest of the show, though she did speak to Natalya, who seemed to agree with her.
This didn’t go well. Check out the argument and fallout:
Opinion: I’m not sure where this is going but at this point, Lashley does not need Lana and has found a better fit with MVP anyway. It would make sense to change things up and just end the story already, as the two of them have barely been on screen together for months now. Let it move on to something else and maybe we can see where things between them can go from here.
What do you think of the change? What should both of them do next? Let us know in the comments below.
