WWE star Rusev hasn't been seen on TV in months but it sounds like plans for his return have been discussed.

Fightful Select reports that internal discussions have taken place in regards to creative plans to bring Rusev back to TV and these conversations have dated back to September.

Rusev has been sidelined since late July after experiencing numbness in his arms during a match against Je'Von Evans. While he still finished the match, Rusev was taken off the road before being cleared in September for a return and has been training in preparation ever since.

While his TV return hasn't yet happened, Rusev returned to live action a couple of weeks ago when WWE was in Hawaii. He wrestled at two house shows - one a tag team match with Ethan Page against Penta and Rey Fenix and another a singles bout against Joe Hendry.
