The main event of Money in the Bank fulfilled the wishes of every WWE fan as R-Truth made his return on June 7. Truth appeared on Monday Night RAW in Phoenix, Arizona, and addressed the crowd on his return. However, what came next shocked the entire world.
“Ron Killings,” Not “R-Truth” is Back
John Cena opened up the June 9 episode of Monday Night RAW and called out Truth for costing him the tag team match two nights ago. He said Truth is just a comedian who copies him and called him a gimmick. Cena was angry with the people at wanting Truth over him.
Cena was confronted by “The Best in The World” CM Punk, who then talked about Truth as he said, “If the people want the Truth, they’re gonna get Ron Killings.”

Before leaving the arena, Killings said, “I am the Truth, the whole Truth, and nothing but the Truth.” He made one thing clear; he wants respect.
