#1 Hilarious story involving R-Truth and Brock Lesnar

There is no denying that R-Truth is one of the funniest and most entertaining WWE Superstar's today. The veteran performer even made the Beast Incarnate break character and lose control over his laughter on an episode of RAW.

R-Truth revealed to The Mixed Show tag wrestling podcast that there was a backstage bet to see if Truth would be able to make the WWE Champion laugh on-screen.

“It was just like, ‘We got to see if you can make Brock laugh. He’s not gonna laugh. He never laughs. See if you can make him laugh,’ and Paul [Heyman] was like, ‘Bet! I bet you he can do it,’ and then I’m trying not to laugh, because I know Brock’s about to laugh when I say this.” [H/T POST Wrestling]

R-Truth's name has become synonymous with the 24/7 Champion as the Superstar has held the championship a record 34-times already.

While R-Truth continues his path to reclaim the 24/7 Championship, Brock Lesnar will be defending his WWE Championship against Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 36.
