"I'm back! Boom!" - 50-year-old WWE Superstar breaks silence after scary injury

R-Truth took to Twitter today to send a message to the WWE Universe as he recovers from a scary injury suffered in November 2022.

The wrestling veteran is best known for his humorous promos and for being a reliable member of the WWE roster over the years. He suffered a freak injury while wrestling Grayson Waller in NXT. The 50-year-old went for a flip over the top rope but missed Waller and landed hard on the floor. The impact caused R-Truth to suffer a torn quad tendon and he was helped backstage by WWE's medical staff.

The 50-year-old sent a message to the WWE Universe on social media claiming that he was already back.

"Yeah…I Got Got y’all! But now…I’m back! Boom!," tweeted R-Truth.
