We go to commercial and Rusev is in the back with Lana and they will be on MizTV when we come back.
We are back and Miz is in the ring with Rusev, but he is not with the person who was with him before the commercial break.
Miz says that Rusev looks like he is back with a vengeance. He asks Rusev he must have hated being at home watching the tournament . . .
Rusev interrupts and he says watching Raw last month . . .
The crowd chants for Lana and Rusev says that you all want Lana, but Lana is his. He says that she is his wife so shut up.
Rusev says sitting at home injured, the WWE Universe did not care about Rusev. There were no Get Well Rusev cards. There were no strawberries with chocolate on them. There was only one person who was there for him. One person who nursed him back to health. One person who would do anything for Rusev. Rusev wants that person to join them in the ring.
Lana makes her way to the ring.
Miz says he cannot believe his eyes. Lana and Rusev in the same place at the same time. This is what MizTV is all about. They have been through it all.
Lana says this is the happiest day of her life.
Miz says this is wild. After all of the insults you have traded back and forth and all of the people you were with, you made Summer Rae, Lana 2.0. Miz stops and asks what brought them back together.
Lana says that when Rusev asked her to spend the rest of their lives together, all was forgiven. They fight hard, but love harder. They saw what was out there and it only made their love stronger. For the record, she never went all the way with Dolph.
The Pittsburgh crowd disagrees with Lana.
Lana says her heart belongs to Rusev. He is her Bulgarian Sunshine.
Rusev says he did not go all the way with Summer. He says he may have broken her heart, but that was about it. He will not only break the spirit of his opponents, he will break their bodies. He says his heart belongs to Lana.
They kiss until Ryback’s music plays.
Ryback says we have all seen enough of this garbage. He says that he heard the Zig Man went all the way. In Pittsburgh, we believe in Smash Mouth. This is not an episode of Teen Wolf, this is Monday Night Raw and the Big Guy is hungry.
We go to commercial.
