Appearing on Busted Open Radio, Killings responded to Bully Ray, who said that he didn't want to hear Killings mention "Truth" anymore after cutting his braids.

"Who the fuck he talking to? Who is he telling me who I am? I know who I am. I'm protecting him. Everybody has somebody trying to tell them who the fuck they are. I know who I am. I not the nice (guy). I'm driving now! Don't let nobody tell you who you are. You know you better than anybody. I know me better than anybody. They better put some respect on my name. I am the truth. How are you gonna tell me why I cut my hair? I do what I want to do. It ain't that nice time no more. I won't be taken advantage of no more. Things are going to change around here. I'm driving now.

"I don't think people really understand. You're gonna have a lot of people give their input and think they are the maestro of your life, emotions, and thoughts. Ain't nobody the maestro of me or for me. I do me. I wish you would. I feel different. I feel more alive than I have ever felt. I'm driving now. Y'all can tell everybody that."

Killings stated on Sunday, June 1st that he had been released by WWE. After a week of "We Want Truth" chants on WWE TV, he returned at WWE Money in the Bank.
