R-Truth made a huge change on this week's WWE RAW. His actions caught the attention of many superstars, including former WWE Champion Big E.
Truth returned during the closing moments of the Money in the Bank Premium Live Event after revealing the news of his release. He caused John Cena and Logan Paul to lose their tag team match against Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso by hitting Cena with the Undisputed WWE Championship. This distraction allowed The American Nightmare to hit Cross Rhodes on Cena and pin him for the win.
Tonight, R-Truth cut his hair while addressing the WWE Universe and confirmed his name change. On X/Twitter, Big E shared his honest opinion on the segment and stated that he couldn't wait to see what the veteran superstar had planned.

"What an incredible segment. Cannot wait to see what @RonKillings does on this run," wrote Big E.
Check out Big E's message to Truth:
R-Truth will now use his real name, Ron Killings, in WWE. The former 24/7 Champion was signed to SmackDown before his release and was involved in a storyline with Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa's Anoa'i family.
He also faced Cena at Saturday Night's Main Event, his last major match before leaving the company. During the show, Truth lost to Cena, who briefly hesitated to use cheap tactics before ultimately hitting him with a low blow for the victory.
