One of the huge pairs of Total Divas will not return when the next season airs. We confirmed earlier that Rusev and Lana will not be a part of the ninth season of the show. These two have been an integral part of the show from 2016 onwards. E Network even covered their entire wedding process which happened twice.
WWE Raw women’s champion joining Total Divas
Lana is a popular name on the WWE roster who has a worldwide fanbase. The gorgeous woman superstar was a mainstream name even before coming to the company. Later, WWE’s banner reached her in global households taking her fame to a whole new level. So it was surprising to see that E Network excluded her from Total Divas.
As per the comments from Lana herself, the show producers cut all the ties with her, themselves. They might have been annoyed with gestures of the Ravishing Russian that lead her into hot water. Now the question is which superstar will fill up the spot of Lana in due course. Apparently, the name is out in public courtesy of the newbie.

SmackDown Live Superstar Sonya Deville recently confirmed her appearance on Total Divas. She will replace Lana on the ninth season which is yet to be disclosed its premiere date. The former Tough Enough competitor disclosed that she is bringing her private life in public during an episode of Afterbuzz TV.
Here are the comments from her,
“Obviously I’m nervous, because any time you have cameras in your personal life, inside your home, in your relationship, it is obviously nerve-racking. My life is crazy and sh– happens sometimes that I’m not proud of, and I make mistakes.
It’s going to all be captured on TV and it’s going to air, and people are hopefully going to be able to relate to some of those mistakes, and stuff like that. My girlfriend will be on this season with me, and so that’s a big thing for her because she’s not in the public eye like I am. She’s not used to cameras in her face. It’s going to be an adjustment for her as well, and our relationship.”
It will be a revolutionary step from a WWE perspective since Sonya Deville is an active member of the LGBT community. She is attracted to women as revealed above. In fact, she is in a relationship with someone. If reports are true then Zahra Schreiber is the one she is dating and willing to spend the rest of the life with.
Interestingly, Zahra Schreiber was also a former WWW employee. She used to work as an announcer on the NXT roster. Seth Rollins was in a relationship with her until a media leak controversy broke out in 2015. Zahra had to leave the WWE but she is in good terms with the company, as of now. Hence, there will not be a problem for her to feature on Total Divas.
