Nic Nemeth Gets Candid About Storyline with Lana While Rusev Was Around
During a Busted Open Radio appearance, Nic Nemeth shares behind-the-scenes details about filming romantic scenes with CJ Perry while Miro was present.
During a recent appearance on Busted Open Radio, Nic Nemeth discussed the unique experience of filming romantic scenes with CJ Perry (Lana) while her husband Miro (Rusev) was present.
I think Vince [McMahon]’s rewarding me instead of giving me winning matches or championships was to be like, ‘Hey, he’s with this girl now.’ I think that was my reward, was that I got a girlfriend at work. We’re in a very small room with (Lana and Rusev) and Vince is saying like, ‘Okay, we gotta see- we need you to be passionate together,’ and we have to practice kissing in a very small room with her husband there with Vince watching like this with a pencil (gestures) and you’re like, ‘Oh God.’
Nemeth explained how the experience created an unexpected bond between the performers.
It was also in the 2010s to where everyone’s online; again, not in WWE but in Hollywood it was much more like, ‘Are you okay with this? Are you okay with this? Okay now we go do a scene,’ instead of just like, ‘Go make it gross. Thank you,’ which is kind of the thing that we got. It’s not what you’re thinking in a lights-down hotel room… but it is absolutely the funniest, biggest rush when you get it, and you get it right.
