R-Truth Reflects On Being Brought Back To WWE: “I’m More Popular & Valuable Than I’ve Ever Been In My Life & My Career”
Truth looks back at his comeback.
On the first day of June 2025, R-Truth took to social media to announce that he had been let go from WWE. There was a rally of online support for Truth, and a week later, he returned to the company at the Money in the Bank Premium Live Event.
That situation is going to be covered in the second season of WWE: Unreal on Netflix, which premieres on January 20th. Truth appeared on The Stephen A. Smith Show and further opened up about it.
“My part (in WWE: Unreal season two) is about when I got released. I haven’t even seen it yet because it’s very emotional for me. It’s when I got released and got so much overwhelming amount of support from the people, the fans — I call them family now — that it’s just unreal…
It was numb. Sometimes we lose and forget who we are. There’s people that’s my age and older — their time ain’t up. I think father time — each individual has its own time, when it’s time, and we have time to make something happen within that time so I think everything that happened happened at the right time for me, because as we saw, I’m more popular and valuable than I’ve ever been in my life and my career. Over hundreds of millions of people showed and told me that.”
