A couple of days ago, Lana announced that her husband Rusev - real name Miroslav Barnyashev - would be going by the name Miro once his WWE contract expires on July 15, 2020. Now, she has given fans a glimpse of Rusev’s incredible physique after being cut by the promotion. Lana went live on Instagram this week from Rusev’s account where she interacted with his fans. During the session, she turned the camera towards Rusev who was wearing a towel. At first, Rusev asked Lana to stop recording, but soon starting posing after Lana began praising his physique.
Wrestling fans believe Rusev undergoing a transformation since he is waiting for his non-compete clause to expire. As reported earlier, Rusev was released by WWE in April 2020. Because he was released before his contract ended, Rusev will have to wait until the expiration of his contract to join another promotion. As revealed by his wife Lana, Rusev’s WWE contract expires on July 15 after which he will be able to work with other wrestling promotions.
