In the latest edition of WWE RAWfans witnessed the impressive Awesome Truth team, consisting of the lady and R-Truth. Since June, Awesome Truth has faced setback after setback, starting with the loss of the world tag team titles.
Bronson Reed then eliminated R-Truth, leaving him absent from WWE programming. The Miz has attempted to get revenge on him but has faced numerous setbacks in his attempts. Last week on WWE RAW, The Miz would face Bronson Reed again. Unfortunately, the match never started because Braun Strowman, who also has beef with Reed, interrupted.
On the latest edition of RAW, The Miz faced Braun Strowman backstage. Just as he was about to address Strowman's actions from last week, R-Truth made a surprising return and interrupted him. R-Truth revealed that he and The Miz would team up to face AOP later in the show. Although The Miz seemed unhappy with the match, he accepted the match.
The match took an unexpected turn when The Miz betrayed R-Truth. He delivered a sudden kick to R-Truth's face and left him in the ring. This led AOP to take advantage of the situation and quickly claim victory. Following The Miz's shocking betrayal, R-Truth responded to his actions.
R-Truth opens up about The Miz's attack on WWE RAW
Earlier this year, WWE created a storyline with R-Truth and The Judgment Day before reforming their partnership with The Miz. R-Truth constantly attempted to join The Judgment Day, despite being denied entry by the faction. Known for his comedic timing, R-Truth seemed to believe that The Miz believes he is still a part of The Judgment Day, leading to the betrayal on RAW.
in a recent interviewR-Truth addressed The Miz's betrayal and mentioned that he feels the latter got confused about his loyalty, believing he was still part of The Judgment Day. He said: “Miz got confused. “He thinks I'm still on doomsday,” he said. When Cathy Kelley pointed out that the attack seemed “intentional,” he responded: “Wait a minute. Are you saying that was done on purpose? Cathy Kelley, don't put any profanities on Miz. “Miz didn't do that intentionally.”
R-Truth then stated, “I was just confused about what team I was on because I used to be on Judgment Day a while ago. But I left them, and I'm on Awesome Truth. I don't think he did it on purpose. Did it look like that? I hope he hasn't. I need to find out. I'll text him… In fact, I need to go pick him up. I don't think he would do something like that, not to me. Better not to have done it on purpose.”
While R-Truth remains in his comedic persona, fans are speculating about The A Lister's actions. Karrion Kross has been playing mind games with The Miz and Xavier Woods for weeks. Kross' strategy seems to have finally paid off with The Miz's betrayal. Now, it remains to be seen if this also leads to Woods betraying his tag team partner, The New Day's Kofi Kingston.
