This past Monday night on RAW saw Lana and Bobby Lashley attempt to tie the knot in Holy Matrimony. Their wedding would be unceremoniously interrupted however by a returning Liv Morgan. Upon returning, Morgan shocked the WWE Universe by revealing that she and Lana were, in fact, former lovers. It didn’t take long for things to devolve between them.
Since the revelation, Lana—who is married to WWE Superstar Rusev in real life—has commented on the unfolding situation. She took to Twitter after fans responded critically to her and Morgan being used in an LGBTQ+ storyline. Many noted how WWE had an outspoken LGBTQ+ representative in Sonya Deville but chose not to use her.
“Don’t assume someone’s sexuality,” Lana wrote. “Just because they are not outspoken in the LGTBQ community doesn’t mean that they’re not pansexual, bisexual, gay, transgender or trying to process their sexuality,” she began. “Even if they are married. For many it’s complicated. Please have compassion.”
The fallout from their wedding will take place during next week’s episode of Monday Night RAW.
Relationship Reaction To Lana And Bobby Lashley
Both Lana and Lashley have recently spoken out about the hateful messages, bullying and racist threats they have each received online for their storyline relationship. Lana described the vitriol as “mind-blowing.”
“I just want people to make a stand and say that [bullying] is wrong,” Lana said. “Just because you disagree with someone’s lifestyle doesn’t mean that you should come and be mean to them in life or on social media. Go talk to your friends about it if you are criticizing, but don’t come on my social platform and talk about it.”
