Since returning to World Wrestling Entertainment at the 2023 Survivor Series: WarGames Premium Live Event, Truth has been a part of some of the most hilarious segments on television. The star has managed to take his funny on-screen persona to his social media as well. For the 2024 Elimination Chamber, the former 24/7 Champion flew to Austria instead of the show's venue in Perth, Australia.

WWE NXT's official Twitter handle recently posted a backstage video in which R-Truth hilariously mistook Shawn Michaels for Johnny Gargano and said he saw a lot of HBK in the legend.

WWE Superstar R-Truth talked about his relationship with Vince McMahon

During a recent interview with the Gorilla Podcast, R-Truth said that he had always been honest with Vince McMahon, and they got along pretty well from the start. Truth also mentioned that he got to know Mr. McMahon on a personal level because of his long tenure with WWE:

"I've always been honest with Vince. Me and Vince have always been cool. We just hit it off from the time I was flown up to meet him way back in '99. He said, 'Truth, you've always just been yourself. You can pretend; you can't fake; you're just always yourself, and you treat me like you'd treat anybody else.' I was always like, 'I've seen Vince in his sweatpants. I've seen him sleeping.' So it's like organically taking advantage of time to get to know somebody."

Many fans want R-Truth and The Miz to win the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship from Finn Balor and Damian Priest. It remains to be seen what the Stamford-based promotion has planned for Awesome Truth's future.
