R-Truth Makes Shocking Return at MITB, Attacks John Cena – In a shocking twist during the main event of WWE Money in the Bank 2025, R-Truth made his unexpected return, aiding Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso in their victory over John Cena and Logan Paul.
The match turned when Cena, after using the Undisputed WWE Championship belt to drop Cody Rhodes, appeared to have the contest in hand. However, a hooded figure stormed the ring and attacked Cena with the same title belt. That figure then revealed himself as none other than R-Truth, drawing a massive reaction from the Toronto crowd.
Truth quickly exited through the audience, allowing Rhodes to recover and deliver a decisive Cross Rhodes on Cena for the pinfall.
Earlier in the bout, Logan Paul and Jey Uso found themselves out of the action after Paul launched himself from the ring with a springboard moonsault, driving Uso through the announce table.
R-Truth’s surprise appearance comes just one week after he publicly stated on June 1 that he had been released by WWE. Reports followed that his contract had not been renewed, sparking chants of “We Want Truth” across WWE programming on RAW, NXT, and SmackDown throughout the week.
As of now, there has been no official word from WWE regarding R-Truth’s contractual status. His sudden reappearance could simply be a one-off surprise, but there are signs pointing to a possible character change. During the post-show broadcast, commentators stressed that fans were chanting for R-Truth, but what they got was “Ron Killings,” his real name. Adding fuel to the speculation, WWE has already listed a new “Ron Killings” t-shirt for sale on its online store.
This development suggests WWE may be phasing out Truth’s beloved comedic persona in favor of a more serious character arc under his real name. Whether this was a one-night-only appearance or the beginning of a new chapter remains to be seen.
