#6 R-Truth

R-Truth has a unique connection with the fans.

If you have been watching WWE programming lately, you are probably aware that WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley recently introduced the newly created WWE 24/7 Championship. This unique title has some hints of the old Hardcore Championship, but it is very different in its own way.

While the title may have a lot to be desired when it comes to the appearance, it has become somewhat of a hit with fans, primarily because of the efforts of its current holder. R-Truth captured the 24/7 title from Robert Roode and has gone on a crazy, yet highly entertaining journey ever since, in an effort to keep the strap.

Truth has never been looked at as one of the top title contenders, but he certainly has a role with the company and he serves his purpose very well. At 47-years young, R-Truth is probably entering the final stretch of his career, but when you look back at what he has done and how he has done it, it's hard to deny his place as a legend in his own right.

Ron Killings began his career back in the mid-to-late '90s and is spoken highly of everywhere he has gone. His biggest accolade probably came during his stint with TNA, when he captured the coveted NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship. However, Truth has also done pretty well for himself as a WWE Superstar as well. Truth will be remembered more for his antics and his comedic ways of entertaining the fans, more than any title victory he may have had.

Despite being in the twilight years of his career, Truth has plenty left to offer fans while he is still around and we should all be more appreciative of his outstanding efforts both in and out of the ring.
