Lana Isn’t Happy About Being Dropped From Total Divas

Lana and Rusevโ€™s tenure on Total Divas has come to an end and “The Ravishing Russian” isnโ€™t happy about it.

Lana โ€” who joined Total Divas as a main cast member in 2016 โ€” announced that she and Rusev would no longer be involved with the E! reality series during an interview with Lilian Garcia on the most recent episode of Chasing Glory.

โ€œKevin Dunn told me that E! executives took a poll and that we are strongly disliked by the demographic,โ€ Lana told Garcia, after mentioning that she and Rusev had once been told they were going to get their own spin-off series.

โ€œThey do not like us and that Iโ€™m hated, weโ€™re hated, and that the E! executives thought that our stories were very slapstick, and they were a strong no,โ€ she added.

โ€œI was shocked. I just sat there. It was like my tryout for WWE all over again. Iโ€™ve gone through a lot of different range of emotions. Iโ€™ll cry, but when I get hurt, I get really angry. Thatโ€™s how I deal with hurt, I get really angry. Like, who is this new E! executive?โ€

Lana continued, โ€œItโ€™s just that Iโ€™m not liked and one part of me is like โ€“ and I said that โ€“ Mark Carrano and Kevin Dunn was there and I said, โ€˜Maybe, Iโ€™m just not a likable person.โ€™ I know Iโ€™m a good person, but maybe I have a boring personality because Iโ€™m just not liked.โ€

Lana went on to say that Total Divas was edited to make her look bad.

โ€œThereโ€™s so many things in edit that I was royally screwed over,โ€ Lana said

“They take someone saying something from one thing and put it there. In edit, they can do whatever they want and thatโ€™s out of your control. If they want to make me more annoying and I have to play that annoying girl, theyโ€™ll do that.โ€

Rusev added, โ€œIโ€™ll make my own show. Once I get rejected from somewhere or whatnot, Iโ€™m moving on.”
