10 Wrestlers And Their Biggest Fears
10. R-Truth And Ailurophobia
While world championship glory has always eluded him in WWE, R-Truth has managed to carve a successful niche for himself as a comedic workhorse with an originality and timing that's second to few. But that doesn't mean there isn't a darker side to Truth behind all the laughs and pratfalls peppering his numerous 24/7 Championship reigns.
Despite his carefree and lighthearted demeanor, Truth is surprisingly terrified around a creature most of us find harmless. And, no, it isn't the ghost of "Little Jimmy". During the Total Divas episode "The Truth About Cats and Divas", we learn that Truth will do just about anything to avoid the common cat. You know, those fluffy household pets that usually can't be bothered dealing with us unless there's a meal waiting for them.
When Natalya's cat escapes during a party, Truth looks absolutely petrified, climbing onto a kitchen counter to escape what he feels is certain death. With the party taking a dark turn and his security compromised, R-Truth threatens to leave, asking Natalya if she's trained her cat to shoot murder him. The poor, poor man.
He then barricades the beast behind a pile of furniture and an elaborate series of knots, just to avoid another chance encounter with Natalya's furball. What's up now, cat? Although Natalya's party continued as planned, we can only hope Truth eventually overcomes his fear and learns to appreciate all those sweet little kitties have to offer. That calming influence, for one thing...
