As noted on SmackDown Live Tuesday night, Rusev is scheduled to face AJ Styles next week in a qualifying match to determine who gets the final spot on the SmackDown Survivor Series team.
WWE posted a fallout video of Rusev talking about the match and said he’s not happy about having to qualify for the spot, especially after he led Team Smackdown in the “Under Siege” attack last week. Rusev says he’s passionate about it and he’s sure of his abilities. He added that as phenomenal as Styles is, he is still only the size of his shoe.
