Earlier yesterday it was rumoured that current SmackDown Live Star Lana along with her husband and former United States Champion Rusev have asked for their WWE release.
The reason behind it was said to be the couple being unhappy with the direction of Rusev’s character on the WWE Programming since he has returned from his injury.
According to several reports, Rusev was originally supposed to get involved in the WWE title picture against Randy Orton upon his return, but the decision to put the title on Jinder Mahal forced Officials to nix those plans.
After this Rusev’s return was held off by the company for weeks as they didn’t have anything planned for him and even after his return, the Bulgarian Brute hasn’t done much on SmackDown Live.
First, he was defeated by John Cena in a flag match at Battleground and just recently Randy Orton defeated him in a very short match at SummerSlam.
All this was said to be the reason why the duo was upset and wanted to leave the company though now Lana herself has confirmed that these reports are false.
A fan asked the WWE Star on twitter if she has asked for her release from the company and the female star confirmed that these reports are not true:
That's called don't believe the pathetic villagers that pretend that they are "journalist" with real facts… hahahahah!!!! https://t.co/EfaoxRsdhJ

Though it’s worth mentioning here that Rusev did not appear on SmackDown Live this week and it’s not known if the creatives have anything planned for him after his match with Randy Orton.
