It was not a “storyline”, or part of the story. After someone on social networks applaud WWE by saying that “we were all deceived” for R-Truth's return in Money in the Bank, Truth clarified on social networks that his brief departure from WWE was not part of a storyline.
“It wasn't work (history),” he replied.
During the press conference after the event, a reporter from USA Today asked Triple H what he took to R-Truth's return and if he had really been fired. Triple H replied:
“I love the question. Did you enjoy the show? Everything is part of the show, friend,” suggesting that what happened in the last week was all part of a storyline.
R-Truth returned to WWE during Saturday's star event, attacking John Cena with a Spear. Then he retired between the crowd while Cody Rhodes covered dinner, giving him the victory to him and Jey use.

Truth announced on June 1 that his contract would not be renewed, which effectively meant his departure from WWE. That same day, Carlito also announced that his contract would not be renewed, and later in the week, Valhalla revealed the same.
R-Truth's release was a mistake, and fans let the WWE know
R-Truth's departure generated a strong reaction in the WWE universe, announcing its departure from the headquarters in Stamford.
When Truth was released, he thanked all those who have appreciated him over the years, and many fans who opposed this decision let their opinions know, suggesting that the triple H's decision not to renew the veteran's contract was an error.
Among the three reasons why WWE's R-Truth release was an error by World Wrestling Entertainment are:
#3. R-Truth provides natural comic acts to WWE television
One of the main reasons that Truth makes a unique star in the company is its natural comic talent, which shows on television. There were many instances in which the 53 -year -old star simply entered the scene, making it memorable for fans.
In the current era of professional wrestling, it is rare to find a star that can contribute this level of comic element to the business. Therefore, this could be one of the solid reasons why liberating Truth was a mistake by WWE.
#2. Truth played a good role in the retirement tour of John Cena
In recent years, R-Truth has been telling everyone that John Cena is his childhood hero. The Franchise Player became Heel during his retirement tour at the beginning of this year on the way to Wrestlemania. Recently, Cena faced Truth, who questioned the actions of the Cenation leader since he became a villain. This led to a fight between them in Saturday Night's Main Event in Tampa.
The WWE universe loved the confrontation. With dinner showing some signs of becoming Babyface during history, the company could have used “Ron Cena” in the coming months to make the last real champion a fans favorite.
#1. The veteran is a great addition to many stories
Not only is the comic element important, but in recent years, Truth has also become a valuable addition to stories. The sports entertainment giant inserted the veteran in the plot when a pause or a bridge for a long -term history was needed.
Due to the popularity and considerable attention of fans, even as an element of filling, the legendary star managed to make history attractive. Many fans believe that his stage with The Judgment Day was very attractive, which led him to win the title of couples in Wrestlemania 40 with Michaels.
