Over the past few weeks, R-Truth has been working with John Cena and more recently, Jimmy Uso, Solo Sikoa and more on Friday night's as part of WWE's SmackDown brand. Truth's current run with the promotion began in 2008, and he has been a fan favorite for much of his time with the company due to his wacky shananigans.
