Lana was recently a guest on 107.7 The Bone with Baby Huey & Bimbo Jimbo. During the interview, she spoke on a wide variety of topics about her career.
One of these topics was the rumors of her having backstage heat. You might remember WWE was doing the storyline relationship between Lana and Dolph Ziggler. It was scrapped early because news leaked of Lana and Rusev’s engagement in real life.
Lana says that there was no heat and Vince McMahon made the decision to change the storyline:
“The truth was that Vince McMahon just decided to go a different route, and that’s just what it was. Rusev and I were trending for like three days straight “Rusev and Lana are engaged”. He just made the decision at that time he goes ok I want to bring them back together…People are always going to talk. I think for 6 months after that the headline was Lana has nuclear heat, (laughter) and I am like great! You know, you’re talking about me.”

How Rusev felt about being on Total Divas:
“He definitely wanted to do it. He fully supports me, and so he was excited to do it. He’s a character. He’s so funny. So, he’s just himself on that like “Sure if cameras want to follow me around that’s fine. I might just be naked at my pool. It’s not my fault the cameras are here.” Which you guys are going to have to watch Total Divas. That might happen next week.”
