Ron Killings, better known as R-Truth in WWE, received overwhelming fan support after his surprising release following a main event loss to John Cena on Saturday night. Although R-Truth has been absent from TV since, he has won one match against Senna while losing another since his comeback. Behind the scenes, he’s still aiming high, with WWE legend and current TNA star Matt Hardy sharing on his podcast “The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy” that he believes R-Truth deserves a major role alongside WWE’s top champions. Hardy emphasized that R-Truth should be featured in standout moments without needing weekly top-tier status, suggesting a significant but selective spotlight for him.
Besides his recent feud with Cena, R-Truth is also clashing with Aleister Black on WWE SmackDown. His latest TV appearance was in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, just before Night of Champions, where Black attacked him backstage after R-Truth tried to persuade general manager Nick Aldis to arrange another match against Cena.
Fan Take: This news highlights the ongoing respect and belief in R-Truth’s potential from wrestling veterans and fans alike, signaling that WWE could strategically use him in impactful roles without overexposing him. For WWE fans, it indicates a promising future where experienced wrestlers like R-Truth can still deliver memorable moments and contribute significantly to the sport’s storytelling.
