Ranking Every SmackDown WWE Superstar Shakeup Move From Worst To Best

11. R-Truth

Comedy relief is fine if booked well and used sparingly.

It's all R-Truth has at this point anyway, and his immediate flub upon debuting on SmackDown (saying he was glad everyone was together on Raw) did raise a giggle. It's very one-dimensional though, and therein lies the core problem with Truth's purpose in WWE these days.

He's a peripheral figure, not one fans will take seriously again in a no-nonsense role and was blatantly only involved in the Shakeup so WWE could balance the books across Raw and SmackDown in terms of numbers. Truth, for lack of a better description, is SmackDown's version of The Ascension in this Shake-up.

Still, if his silliness is kept to a minimum, Truth could be fun for the odd segment or two sprinkled here and there. That's provided SmackDown's writers don't book weekly segments during which he acts like a 10-year old boy.

Leave that to Nicholas.
