Fightful Select is reporting that R-Truth’s WWE departure is legitimate and he’s set to part ways with the company. According to the report WWE has decided not to renew R-Truth’s contract. It was noted that talent relations contacted Truth over the weekend to inform him that his contract will not be extended when it expires.
It’s being said that a number of talent checked on R-Truth after the news was announced, and that everyone, including R-Truth himself was confused by the news. The departure was reportedly met with complete shock and one talent called it “total nonsense.” Another talent called the regime “ruthless.” R-Truth’s departure was also said to have been one of the most criticized and universally disliked.
Shortly after news of R-Truth’s departure started making the rounds, Pat McAfee praised Truth with a heartfelt statement when he posted the following:
“I love @RonKillings
It’s guaranteed joy when he’s a part of a segment.. He’s also my dad’s favorite WWE Superstar of all time.
The McAfees are bummed aht but we all know R Truth will continue to bless the world with his BIG a** brain
THANK YOU TRUTH”
