🙌 “I Love EVERYONE of Y’all to Death” — Truth’s Message to Fans
Replying to a fan post on X (formerly Twitter), Truth shared a heartfelt message confirming that the #WeWantTruth movement made all the difference:
“No🧢 #WeWantTruth was seen, heard, felt and understood… Believe me when I say this, I Love EVERYONE of yall to death🥲 We made history together.”
From trending hashtags to vocal support across platforms, the outcry from fans and wrestlers alike prompted WWE to reopen talks with Truth, even after his exit had been confirmed.
🧠 Nick Khan Personally Intervened to Bring Him Back
According to reports, R-Truth initially ignored WWE’s attempts to reach him during the week of his departure. It took WWE CEO Nick Khan personally stepping in to convince him to return to the company he’s called home for over two decades.
Khan’s intervention — rare for a mid-card talent — proves the deep respect and admiration WWE has for the veteran performer.
🆕 Why R-Truth is Now Going by His Real Name, Ron Killings
While he returned under the beloved “R-Truth” banner at Money in the Bank, it’s now confirmed that he’ll be going forward as Ron Killings — a name that carries both real-life weight and career foresight.
According to Wrestling Observer’s Dave Meltzer, the name change was requested by Truth himself as part of his new WWE deal.
🔹 Reason: Establish the “Ron Killings” name now to help with future independent bookings after his WWE career ends.
🔹 Effect: WWE may push a more serious character arc, reflecting Killings' legacy and experience.
At MITB, fans saw the first glimpse of this shift when he interfered in the main event, costing John Cena and Logan Paul their tag match by attacking Cena. A far cry from his comedic antics, this Ron Killings might just be a force to be reckoned with.
🔥 A New Chapter for a WWE Cult Icon
Once known for his comedic brilliance, dance breaks, and legendary chemistry with The Miz, Killings' return is no nostalgia trip — it’s a reset. His blend of charisma, ring IQ, and raw storytelling ability could now be used to add emotional depth and seriousness to his character for the first time in years.
And make no mistake — the WWE Universe is behind him all the way.
🗣️ Fan Reactions to Ron Killings’ Return:
-
“We spoke, they listened. Legends NEVER die. Welcome back, Truth.”
-
“If this is Ron Killings’ serious run, I’m all in. Let him cook.”
-
“The fact Nick Khan had to call him shows how VALUED he is.”
