The WWE Universe recently lit up Twitter with reactions to a side-splitting R-Truth video shared by the company on social media.
Since his return to World Wrestling Entertainment at the 2023 Survivor Series: WarGames Premium Live Event, Truth has injected humor into some of the most memorable segments on television.
Not content with just entertaining on-screen, the star has extended his comedic flair to social media platforms. For the 2024 Elimination Chamber, the former 24/7 Champion took an unexpected detour, flying to Austria instead of the event’s scheduled venue in Perth, Australia.
A backstage video shared by WWE NXT’s official Twitter handle captured a priceless moment where R-Truth humorously mistook Shawn Michaels for Johnny Gargano, attributing shades of HBK to the legend.
This post sparked a flurry of responses from fans, who eagerly shared their thoughts in the comments section. One fan couldn’t resist speculating that Shawn Michaels might have called Triple H to ensure Truth didn’t make another appearance in NXT.
Another fan, unable to contain their laughter, expressed sheer amusement at the video. Meanwhile, a fan envisioned a future for R-Truth as a commentator post-retirement from professional wrestling. Another Twitter user confessed that they couldn’t help but smile whenever R-Truth graced their television screen.

Echoing this sentiment, another fan advocated for extended airtime for R-Truth, suggesting a 30-minute segment dedicated to his antics on episodes of Monday Night RAW.
Several fans hailed R-Truth as a national treasure, praising his unique brand of entertainment.
Yet, amidst the lighthearted banter, one fan pitched the idea of a match between R-Truth and Oba Femi, urging Shawn Michaels to book the showdown on NXT.
In a recent interview with the Gorilla Podcast, WWE Superstar R-Truth opened up about his relationship with Vince McMahon. Reflecting on their bond, Truth emphasized his honesty with McMahon and their mutual respect developed over his long tenure with WWE.
Many fans have expressed hopes for R-Truth and The Miz to capture the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship from Finn Balor and Damian Priest. As speculation swirls, fans eagerly anticipate what lies ahead for Awesome Truth’s future.
