As noted, WWE has announced Chris Jericho will be replacing Rusev in the Casket Match against The Undertaker that is scheduled for WWE’s Greatest Royal Rumble on Friday. For those who missed it, the storyline reason for Rusev being pulled was Lana refusing to allow him to compete in the Casket Match.
WWE’s announcement came just a few hours after TMZ Sports publishing a video interview with Lana and Rusev discussing the match and how The Bulgarian Brute would send The Dead Man to retirement.
Since then, Rusev has removed WWE references from his social media. According to F4WOnline’s Daily Update, everything has been storyline. Earlier today, Rusev wrote “Gonna miss you bud!” on English’s latest post on Instagram.
