This week’s episode of WWE RAW marked Imperium’s official red brand debut, and it was revealed that they are currently working for Paul Heyman.
Since Triple H likes the group, it is anticipated that he will keep them going strong. The alliance with Heyman also raises the possibility, though it hasn’t been officially confirmed, that an Imperium vs. Bloodline feud is planned for some point later this year.
Ilja Dragunov, according to Twitter inside BoozerRasslin, is “eyed to join Imperium later.” It was not specified when that would take place. It’s also important to remind everyone that things can be delayed or moved up for a variety of reasons and plans can change.
Dragunov is currently on the NXT brand. He was previously the NXT United Kingdom Champion.
The NXT UK brand was primarily where Dragunov appeared. On the September 20th broadcast, he made his official NXT debut.
