#3. R-Truth becomes United States - WWE SmackDown 2019

R-Truth is a veteran in WWE and has spent the last few years chasing the 24/7 Championship, which he has now held more than 50 times.

Before Truth became part of the crowd chasing the 24/7 title, he was seen as a legitimate competitor in WWE, which is why he was able to accidentally win the United States Championship in 2019.

Corey Graves deleted his Tweet! More details HERE.

Former WWE referee Mike Chioda recently told Wrestling Shoot Interviews the story of how Truth rolled up Shinsuke Nakamura and was able to get a surprise victory on an episode of SmackDown.

“Vince loved it. R-Truth tells me the wrong f***ing finish. ‘You said you were only getting schoolboyed once!’ And he was like, ‘Oh, my bad, dawg, I’m sorry, man.’ He had the US title or something, 24-hour title… US title, I think. So it was kind of funny. I thought I was gonna get a bunch of heat coming back and Vince was like, ‘That was phenomenal, I loved it!’ I’m like, ‘What? Okay, great.’”

Vince McMahon loved the surprise and allowed Truth to keep the Championship and have a reign of 35 days.
