Rusev is temporarily out of WWE action with a knee injury, Dave Meltzer is reporting on Wrestling Observer Radio.

The injury occurred at the house show in Bossier City, Louisiana, on Saturday night. Rusev did the job to Ryback, but there was no obvious injury at the time. Meltzer believes it is a minor one, and there’s a chance that the Bulgarian Brute may be back in the Royal Rumble match.

Rusev has proved to be injury prone in the past. He missed time last spring with a leg injury, which also occurred in a match he had against Ryback. He returned in the summer, but then went out injured again in the autumn, after suffering a biceps injury.

His latest injury won’t be too much of a blow to WWE, as they didn’t have much going on with him other than his League Of Nations role. Meltzer actually joked that Rusev was better off injured than being at Raw, where the League Of Nations were being made to look like geeks and getting destroyed by Brock Lesnar.

While the company injury list is certainly adding up, only the losses of John Cena and Seth Rollins have been real blows to WWE. Rusev is an interchangeable mid-card heel, and fans barely even noticed his absence on Raw this week.

I agree after Maina, these are the future endeavors crew:
Wade : he is not going to succeed.
Rusov: injury prone
Adam Rose: never got a fair chance
Lana: her time has passed
Alicia Fox: same she is taking up a roster spot.
Torito and Zack Ryder : trash needs to go.
Darren : taking up a roster spot
Cody : hate it had to be him but his image is beyond repair.
I agree with everyone except Cody and Rusev/Lana.

This, Sasha having to clarify her non injury on tumblr, and Orton having to stop the lies about neck surgery on Instagram.... Meltz is just flinging shyt at the wall and hoping something sticks
:mjpls::
As noted, WWE pulled Sasha Banks from the ring after her December 28th WWE RAW match against Becky Lynch in Brooklyn. Word was that she had an undisclosed injury.

After Sasha apparently dismissed but did not deny the reports on her Tumblr last week, it's being reported now that she suffered a MCL tear injury to one of her knees. She is not expected back in the ring until some time after February, according to PWInsider.

As noted earlier, Paige also confirmed that she's out of action. Both Divas are expected to be back in action soon.
Sounds like Rusev's just keeping kayfabe too.

And the schedule still wont change, they'll just be called unreliable. Granted it seems the WWE is becoming leniant with giving them time off when the injury occurs, but then again they cant force wrestlers to admit to being injured because of fear they'll be pushed down the card again. This sounds like a terrible environment, they got it made down in NXT.

What's the main event of WM 32, Francis?
Not giving up hope.
HBK vs Rocky
Bullet Club vs Dean and Roman and New Day. All titles on the line.
DB returns as a heel against Roman.
Taker vs Roman.
DB vs Taker career vs career match.

One of those combos will be it.

I feel like if nikkas ever actually listened to Meltzer, theyd realize dude hardly, if ever, actually flat out says "yeah this totally happened"

shyt dirtsheet sites listen to Meltzer and take whatever he said as absolute fact even when he was just saying "what if"

like a while back some sites reported Meltzer saying wwe werent gonna push kalisto cause he was too short but it took what meltzer said completely out of context
