Lana said that she had been receiving threats over the phone, email and on her social media pages. She added that she had been given FBI protection until the danger is resolved. She called the comments appalling and took a stance against cyber-bullying.
Lana said that cyber-bullying was a significant cause behind suicides and called out the bullies for behaving abominably. She said that people need to think before they comment and the anonymity that online mediums offer should not be misused. Lana added that victims of bullying are scarred for life, and people should be sensitised towards the impact bullying has on others. Away from WWE storylines, Lana and Rusev are part of a new rom-com titled Another Version of You.
