After making his debut in WWE as spirited renegade known for his ringside rapping, Truth excited WWE fans young and old with his explosive offense and energetic entrance. But, it wasn’t long before a darker side of the Superstar began to take hold. The truth, as he claims, set him free, but from the perspective of the rest of the WWE Universe, R-Truth slowly tilted toward madness in 2011.
Truth turned on the people – the “Jimmys,” as he describes them – claiming that there were conspiracies at work in WWE that held him back and kept him from reaching his true potential. His paranoia soon turned vicious, leading him to cripple John Morrison and ignite a war with Rey Mysterio before going completely bonkers, donning a Confederate soldier’s uniform and ransacking arena merch stands in pursuit of John Cena merchandise.
Truth found company with The Miz, a similarly-jilted Superstar, and the two waged war on WWE as Awesome Truth, a tag team out to uncover the supposed unjust underbelly of WWE. They made waves as a duo, even taking on the team of The Rock and John Cena at Survivor Series. However, a loss in that match prompted an ugly falling out between the conspiracy theorists.
Now, the WWE Universe finds itself entertained by R-Truth’s zany conversations with invisible friends (or are they enemies?) and simply unpredictable behavior. And he’s found a perfect partner in crime in Kofi Kingston as the duo captured the WWE Tag Team Championships in April 2012. Now that’s “what’s up!”
