The problem is, once you remove the suit and the snobby attitude, she will no longer stand out. She will be just like any other Diva. People like her because, yes, she's hot... but she's hot sporting the conservative look. Hell, Emma is hot too, but her look is just generic. Here performances and Russian accent are also entertaining. I don't mind if they remove the accent and reveal she's American, but it is just fun to hear her bash us Americans. It's also fun to annoy her. i think if I ever met and asked her for a photo with me, I'd hope she'd put on the annoyed face she usually does. She makes Kayfabe fun! Here's a short but good article that expressed this: www.cagesideseats.com/wwe/2015/4/13/8405615/jim-ross-breaks-lanas-kayfabe-gets-crushed-for-itI just hope she keeps her unique qualities when she turns face, but I doubt WWE won't screw this up.

Rusev will be released within 6 months and she has to win the diva's championship.

I said it a few months back... Rusev... You've just been Marc Mero'd! You've been like Nostradmus lately. Or however you spell it.

You're turning into Barry Horowitz.

I absolutely think turning Lana face, and more importantly, turning her American, is a terrible idea. Not only would Rusev be permanently lost in the shuffle, but they're bound to Lana up. She does a fantastic job as a manager - I don't see any reason not to leave her in that role. WWE constantly tries to force people into roles where they don't fit, and it never works well.

I hope Sheamus also has a similar storyline and turns out to actually be from Jamaica.

She's Sable but hotter.
Plus, losing the Russian gimmick will only lead to better things for her.
I'm down.

If she can't wrestle, then no.

No surprise. I was just waiting for them to create a storyline revealing her as American....I've seen it happen to popular heels for years....heel has broad caricature of a gimmick that they make work because of they're talent.... They get over over with the crowd and WWE responds to it. They soon strip away everything about the character that got them over- they're music, they're outfit and they're attitude.....eventually they become humanized to the point that they're stale and boring until they get reinvented in some way.....in a lot of ways you can't avoid it. Characters usually naturally evolve.... But in a lot of ways WWE kills it by trying to fix what's not broken.

Rusev is falling off really quickly.

Rusev is falling off really quickly. After basically being white hot heading into Mania. See: Wyatt, Bray

So they have a bunch of great female wrestlers almost ready, and they want to push one who probably can't wrestle for crap as the female face of the company?
Sounds about par for the course.

I gotta disagree with all of this. First, we don't even know if she's even decent as a woman wrestler to be pushed as the top babyface diva. It worked in Sable's days, but we're in a day and age where the women have to have some sort of wrestling ability, whether is decent or great. Leave her as a valet, she's perfect at it, but they decided to go the Marc Mero vs. Sable route, except we probably won't be seeing Rusev get powerbombed by Lana. Leave her the way she is

A face turn is such a horrible idea. There's still so much left in the tank as a heel for her.
