R-Truth to have Kenny Gimmick?
 

Source: wrestlingnewscoops.net

Sources inside the WWE say that after the segment on RAW in which R-Truth was blown up by MacGruber, there is talk of adding a more comedic element to R-Truth's character. Much like the character Kenny in South Park, R-Truth would be killed every episode, but come back the very next week with no explanation. Vince is said to be very high on the idea.

i have no words

Now why couldn't they do it with Batista or Hornswoggle instead?

I think it's a pretty stupid idea, especially doing it with someone like R-Truth. I'm not a huge Truth fan, but the guy is way over, so why not plug him into a meaningful program? If they really wanna use this comedy crap, use it with someone who's strictly a comedic act, like Hornswoggle (as VSG said)

i call bulshit on this story

killing a black man every week. great idea WWE

They already did this with Tim White. It's not wise to do it it again.

This is a great idea. This is especially great in the wrestling industry where wrestler deaths are not a touchy subject at all and have not been the primary source of controversy in the business over the past decade or so.

That's fucking morbid. Especially the way it comes across on tv.

Basically. Sometimes i wonder, if this is true, what has been going through Vince's head since Mid-2002.

Typical Vince, just now finding out about something that happens on a tv show. I agree that it should be someone else instead of Truth. It seemed he was getting pushed better, so this would be a step back.

Oh my God, you killed R-Truth! You bastard!

lol I thought this was programming for children.

Oh well I guess we knew it was all going to hell anyways.

Let's see Linda explain this one.

<font color=goldenrod>Seeing R-Truth die every week only makes me want to tune in more. Awesome work. :y:

Seriously, it'd be no worse than the Lunchtime Suicide episodes. If anything, the deaths will be far less serious.</font>

Bring Back Bobby Lashley

OH MAH GAWWWWD, YOU KILLED R TRUTH! YOU BATH TURDS!!!!

And we all remember how much of a push R-Truth received from his Pretty Ricky segments.

He's a midcarder, over and black. That's like the trifecta of not getting a proper push in WWE.

My source is UNDENIABLE. :mad:

Oh you

this gimmick was MADE for MIZ.

Sheamus should have a huge role in this angle.

Albert for Big Gay Al.

I think it's weird you assume he actually found out about it. He probably thinks it's a fresh idea. You know, like a white rapper or that pirate guy.

Anyway, I doubt this is true, but if it is, I'm sure it will be handled tastefully and with the care it deserves.

So, to summerise...

1) Killing a wrestler on TV is a real bad idea given the number and focus on deaths in the industry.

2) Truth is pretty over as it is and WWE already failed with a comedic element in his act.

3) Vinny is TWELVE years too late with this idea!!

This made me lol.

But Vince doesn't know how to listen to reason.

THIS!!!


TBH, I'm waiting for the WWE to put Shad, JTG, Truth, Shelton, Kofi, Tarver, Otunga, and Alcia Fox as the WWE version of Fat Albert's Gang. :roll:

Oy.

Plus, it didn't work out very well the last time someone said it.

Stupid idea, but R Truth is just another bland wrestler for the little ones to scream for. So oh fucking well.

Benoit was a hero for ending that stupid storyline.

Granted, few are willing to sacrifice their families and themselves....

This has to be BS.

Okay, watch this following clip and tell me that this proposed angle is out of the realm of possibility.

I didn't know it was going to happen when I watched RAW, and my feelings were like this: "Woot! R-Truth is annoying. Thank goodness they blew him up! Wait, why aren't they taking this seriously? This is making me feel a bit awkward. Shit...aren't they going to explain what happened to R-Truth?"

This angle is definitely not PG enough for the WWE to do, either. It could have some pretty decent backlash attached to it.
