Rusev is set to face John Cena for the WWE United States Championship at WrestleMania 31 on March 29 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif. The match was made after Lana agreed on behalf of the mighty Russian to a Fastlane rematch after Cena made him pass out in the STF.
Rusev defeated Cena at Fastlane on Feb. 22 in Memphis.

The WWE is going with a storyline now where Rusev is angry at Lana and the mighty Russian had a verbal altercation with her on SmackDown.
WWE announcer Tom Phillips met up with Rusev for SmackDown Fallout and tried to get him to open up about his relationship with the ravishing Russian.
Phillips questioned where Lana was, and Rusev stayed silent. He then asked about a possible falling out between them and Rusev responded in Russian.
Phillips also talked about Lana being the reason that Rusev has to face Cena at WrestleMania, and was once again met with a response in Russian.
Finally, Phillips asked Rusev if he has more than a professional relationship with Lana and got a response in English.
"It's not your business," Rusev said before storming off.
Rusev, whose real name is Miroslav Barnyashev, is said to be dating Lana, who really goes by Catherine Perry outside of the squared circle.
The two reportedly bought a house together in Nashville, and wedding bells could be chiming in the future:
