— Shane McMahon has been a constant presence on both Raw and SmackDown LIVE in recent weeks and it’s reportedly wearing thin on WWE Superstars that haven’t received as much television time.

According to Fightful (h/t Ringside News), WWE Superstars have not criticized Shane personally, but consider the decision to feature him so heavily to be “infuriating.”

Rusev lent credence to the report Tuesday, tweeting, “Iโ€™m not. Itโ€™s normal. He is the bosses son.” His tweet was in response to a fan that asked how frustrating it is to see McMahon on television instead of him.

When another fan called him out for being a “WWE employee” going off on his own company, “The Bulgarian Brute” responded, “I’m not an employeeโ€ฆ”

— Former WWE Superstar Darren Young was backstage at SmackDown LIVE in Ontario, California. He posted these photos of himself with Sonya Deville.
