The Bulgarian has about 93,000 subscribers on YouTube apart from 45,000 followers on Twitch.
He has devoted a lot of time and effort to create this fanbase he enjoys currently and it is plausible that his followers shall grow each day.
However, fans have not been able to discard the possibility that Rusev might be seen wrestling once again.
Although Rusev says he is done with wrestling, he is committing to the gym and chiseling his body rather impressively.
A lot of sources have said that he might join AEW sometime in his career, as he had spoken highly about Chris Jericho who is currently signed with AEW.
Rusev praised Jericho as a leader of the locker room and this has fans wondering whether we will have a match between them in the future.
However, as of now, Rusev is a serious gamer, Twitcher, and YouTuber and wants to focus on this new endeavor in his life.
The Bulgarian was released back in April, along with several other superstars from WWE.
The budget cuts due to the COVID-19 pandemic needed some of the talent cut loose.
Fans all over the world as well as current AEW commentator, Good Ol’ JR thinks WWE made a false move releasing Rusev.
A future world champion if used properly, Vince McMahon could have made real money with him, instead of part-timers earning big paychecks.
Rusev said that he had a texting conversation with the Chairman of WWE and it was healthy decent conversation.
Although Rusev is done with wrestling for now and shall be seen as a gamer, fans are keeping fingers crossed for him to return to wrestling again.
