Rusev Likely To Miss Wrestlemania 33 Due To Injury

Rusev is rumored to be dealing with a shoulder injury that could keep him out of action for WrestleMania. Rusev lost a somewhat thrown together match to the Big Show at Fastlane, getting in limited offense against the giant and taking several chokeslams. Show ended it with a knockout punch, giving himself momentum headed into WWE’s biggest show of the year.

Big Show allegedly told a fan at a recent convention that Rusev is undergoing surgery. F4wonline confirms Rusev will be out of action for several weeks, but it’s unknown if he is in fact going under the knife.

Last week, Rusev mentioned on Instagram that he is taking 30 days off from weight training, another indication that he’s injured and won’t be competing at WrestleMania.
