I believe it. The dude is lame.

His rapping ability to piss poor at best, his inring ability is as unrealistic as you can get.

I love how people bash Orton's realistic looking chinlock and don't say a word about R Truths spinny shoulder block thing.

I'd rather see a match full of rest holds then watch an R Truth match.

Imagine if Truth and Kofi wrestled each other? Its not a pretty thought.

Now I am saying right now that I am not a fan of all the spinng around and shit but on the other hadn I gotta admit that as much as I dislike that style, it was still something pretty new for SD. Like when most midcarders join one of the rosters there isn't really anything that makes them stand out and I can tell you that it probably would have bene the same for Truth if he was to adopt a basic wrestling style but with the spins and stuff it gives him something that makes him stand out from the rest and after a couple of months the amsuement has probably kinda wore off for WWE.

That match would completely all over the place, both of their wrestling styles are too high-energy and flashy which would throw off any interest in watching the match at all.

I find this rumor completely believeable, R-Truth has practically falling with his ACTUAL wrestling skills and is trying to get too flashy for the crowd. And besides his style of wrestling only attracts the younger crowd anyways.

If that's why his push is stalled. Than Cena, Tista, Show, Khali, Henry, and someone else i forgot, would be in the gutter.

For those of you who are saying that Ron Killings sucks in the ring. He may not be the best technical wrestler, but he is way more exciting than Cena, Orton, Batista, and Triple H. His matches are entertaining, and the guy knows how to get the crowd pumped up.

In conclusion, R Truth > most of the Smackdown! roster

^^^Yeah, sorry dude.... You really do.

Truth = cheap thrills and the biggest case of faux-charisma I have ever seen.

I like Killings, but he really is style over substance. Medicore at best really, he's over with the fans due to that horrible rapping. I still can't see why his push would be stalled, seeing as WWE is now being billed as an entertainment company, and to the people that cheer for him, they don't care how well he can pull off chain moves, he's flashy.

Holy shit, somebody just said that R-Truth was more exciting than John Cena? Lmfo.

Want to argue who is more exciting to YOU? That will always come down to opinion. However, there is such thing as fan reaction, which is the best way to measure one's excitement level. R-Truth is nowhere near as over as any of the people Chess mentioned. Blindly following the correct stance is better than blinldy making up shit and trying to seem legitimate.

Sorry that I have a differing opinion, I guess I should have blindly agreed with everyone else :nonono:


No, you do have a point there.... Holding a wrong/flawed opinion is still better than blindly following others.




I issued an 'open challenge' a while ago:

Reccomend a match... Show me how good Truth can be.

By all means take me up on it.

Notice he said R-Truth, not Ron Killings. A wrestler must be able to successfully play the role given to them. Thus far, I would say that R-Truth has failed.

Truth's honeymoon period was a good one - earned some serious heat off his flexible finishers and was rewarded with a US title shot and short feud with Benjamin.

I agree he has been disappointing lately. Has the makings of a decent mid-carder, however if he eased back from babyface to face it might help. Just thinking out loud here.
