Bryan Alvarez also reported the following recently via Wrestling Observer Radio:

“There is no scandal involving Rusev, it is all storyline. Rusev is no longer in the match with The Undertaker. He’s been replaced by Chris Jericho. They ran some goofy stuff on social media to get people talking – which they did. Rusev, I believe, is going to be in The Greatest Royal Rumble, so he’s still on the show. The point is that Rusev is not quitting. He’s not leaving. He’s not getting fired. Nothing like that. They just decided Jericho vs Undertaker would be a better match even though they announced Rusev vs Undertaker before they figured that out.”
