WWE veteran R-Truth has reflected on his brief departure from the company earlier this year, detailing the overwhelming support he received from his peers in the WWE locker room during that uncertain time.
R-Truth Felt The Love From The WWE Locker Room
Speaking on The Masked Man Show, Killings was asked about the support he received after it was announced his contract was not being renewed. He cited specific examples, including Rhea Ripley wearing his shirt and calls from Kevin Owens and Road Dogg.
“I’m talking about thousands of text messages. The unity. The love. There was so much in that,” he said.
The Power Of The R-Truth Fan Support
The combination of support from fans, who chanted “We want Truth” across all three WWE brands, and his colleagues had a profound effect on him. He stated that it made him feel like “The People’s Champ.”
“That kind of love, support, and motivation that put an S on my chest. ‘You are our champ. We love you and what you represent and how you make us feel.’ My title and championship is those hundreds and millions of people. I don’t need no material. I have organic living fresh proof that the love is the championship,” he said.
Since his return to the company, R-Truth has debuted a new, more serious persona on Friday Night SmackDown, a stark contrast to the comedic character fans had known for years.
