The Wrestling Observer is reporting that WWE may have canceled the planned feud between Jack Swagger and Rusev, as the decision was made during Monday's creative meetings to not go through with a planned idea to have the two "face each other at several pay-per-views."

The reason for this decision has not been made clear as of yet, though there is heavy speculation that it may have to do with Lana's promo at the recent Battleground event, in which she mentioned that the United States is blaming Russia for "recent current events," As previously reported, many people were said to be outraged over the promo and have concluded it to be a reference to the recent Malaysian Airlines disaster, though WWE recently issued a statement claiming that Lana's Battleground promo "was in no way referring" to the tragedy.
