22-year wrestling veteran reportedly listed as R-Truth's new tag team partner in WWE

If recent reports are anything to go by, wrestling veterans R-Truth and Shelton Benjamin are now internally listed as a tag team in WWE.

Truth and Benjamin are two names fans have seldom seen in the promotion's live programming in recent months. However, they have been a staple on WWE Main Event, often competing against undercard and rising talents.

Those watching the show might have noticed that after a few matches against each other, R-Truth and Shelton Benjamin have started to work in tandem. On last week's episode of Main Event, they debuted as a tag team in a losing effort against Josh Briggs and Brooks Jensen.

Now, Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select has given us an update on the same. Per the report, Benjamin and Truth are listed as a tag team on WWE's internal roster. However, the promotion has not yet decided on a name for the duo.
