The former WWE main writer, Vince Russo, recently shared his thoughts about R-Truth's promo this week. The star made her surprising return in Money in the Bank.
Truth gave a powerful promo this week while standing at the commentators' table. The veteran fighter proceeded to cut his hair, symbolizing the abandonment of his former personality and the adoption of a new character. He announced that Ron Killings had arrived and asked everyone to put some respect in his name.
This week in Legion of RAW From Sportskeeda, Vince Russo said that R-Truth should have approached the mystery behind her release. He felt that the star should have talked about how WWE did not want to renew her contract due to her age. The veteran writer considered that casual fans would better relate to that story, generating interest in the angle.
“Let's see Truth tonight. All the speech on the table. Brother, if I'm a casual fan, I don't know what he's talking about. Then, Truth, why don't you say simply, 'They were not going to renew my contract because I am 53 years old,' say now, oh, oh, I understand ageism, 53, because of the fact that he has given 53, people say, 'damn it is 53.' Now, suddenly, they are behind Truth because he has 53. But the story he told, if I am a casual fan that is not online, I don't know what he is talking about. ” (From 10:45 onwards)
It will be interesting to see how WWE's creative team handles this new Gimmick for R-Truth and how it is programmed in the coming weeks.
