Reddit User Translates Rusev’s Final Words During His Payback Match Against John Cena; Did He Say “I Quit?”

May 18, 2015

rusev Reddit user addictedsc2 has translated what Rusev said at the very end of his Payback match against John Cena. Rusev was speaking in Bulgarian, and his final words are what caused Lana to “throw in the towel”. Below is what Rusev said:

“Ahhh no…ahhh I give up! Next time we will crush you! I give up! Stop! I told you! I’ll crush you Cena! Damn your old mother, Cena! I will crush you! That’s enough, I told you.”

The actual words Rusev used might play into the story lines, as he did “submit” to John Cena, but he never actually said the words “I Quit.” Nevertheless, Lana reacted to Rusev saying “I give up” and told the referee that he had quit. As seen, Rusev was furious with Lana for ending the match, and as we noted earlier Lana explained on Twitter that she was translating so the ref could understand what Rusev was saying.
