52-year-old legend to be written off television after a potential assault on WWE RAW? Exploring the chances
The Monday Night RAW roster is currently stacked with numerous legends and seasoned veterans who have been entertaining the fans. Among the long list is R-Truth, who has been a stalwart in WWE for more than a decade. The 52-year-old legend could be on the receiving end of a merciless attack next week as a former champion could annihilate him on RAW.
Pete Dunne could ambush the WWE veteran on the upcoming edition of the red brand. The seeds of discord were sown this week during their brief backstage confrontation on RAW. Moments after R-Truth thrashed The Miz and sent him reeling on the floor, he crossed paths with Dunne backstage. With a humorous wit, he asked, "Wassup Butch!! You seen Pete?"
For those unaware, the former NXT UK Champion harbors an identity complex, as he strongly despises being called "Butch." This was seen during his rivalry with Sheamus. Therefore, R-Truth could suffer Pete Dunne's wrath next week for calling him by that very name. The nature of the attack could be so severe that it puts Truth on the shelf, writing him off television.
The chances of The Bruiserweight launching a merciless assault on the 52-year-old legend are quite high, given his intense aversion to being referred to by the former moniker. The two superstars could start a fresh feud on the red brand. However, the possibility of R-Truth going on a hiatus is relatively low as he's a fan favorite and a staple of Monday Night RAW.
R-Truth to be involved in The Miz's feud with The Wyatt Sicks on WWE RAW?
The Miz is currently embroiled in a feud with The Wyatt Sicks on RAW as Uncle Howdy has cast its ominous shadow over him. Amid his quandary with the sinister faction, The A-Lister was seen approaching R-Truth for help. However, the latter denied his request, following which Miz was seen getting abducted by the scary stable.
Given Truth's humorous gimmick, a lot of fans have been wondering whether he could play a major role in this storyline. Will he keep his animosity aside to help his former tag team partner? The chances of the 52-year-old getting involved in this feud are relatively low.
The Miz's ongoing feud on RAW has been revolving around The Final Testament and The Wyatt Sicks. This will likely lead to a multi-person Mixed Tag Team Match with The Awesome One siding with Karrion Kross and his stable. R-Truth's involvement in this storyline would be redundant.
It will be interesting to see what WWE has in store for the veteran superstar on the red brand. Will Truth start a new storyline with Pete Dunne, or will WWE continue to showcase him in backstage segments? It remains to be seen.
