We will have to wait and see how long that will be. Until than, expect more vignettes.
8) Rusev Wants A Title Shot!
Rusev spoke for the first time on Smackdown Live since being acquired in the ‘Superstar Shake-Up’. He played some hardball with Shane McMahon and Daniel Bryan.
Rusev said that he won’t come to Smackdown unless he is given a title shot at the Money in the Bank pay-per-view event.

Rusev is currently recovering from a shoulder injury. Could Rusev be getting a WWE Championship shot when he returns? Certainly seems like it.
