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. |

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)

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.

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.

Seeing R-Truth die every week only makes me want to tune in more. Awesome work.
![]() Seriously, it'd be no worse than the Lunchtime Suicide episodes. If anything, the deaths will be far less serious. |

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

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!! |

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. |
