10 Hilarious Times Wrestling Didn't Take Itself Too Seriously
6. R-Truth's Latter Career
Ron Killings’ career has been long, varied, and fruitful. He enjoyed an underrated run as K-Kwik alongside Road Dogg at the tail end of the Attitude Era, and with TNA became a two time NWA World Heavyweight Champion. He returned to WWE and enjoyed a brief spell in the main event, before deciding to segue into a career as a wrestling comedian.
Truth can often be the most entertaining part of WWE broadcasting. When used correctly, he’s a hilarious agent of chaos - he wanders out where he doesn’t belong, interrupts the likes of Brock Lesnar or Roman Reigns, talks nonsense, then disappears again.
In perhaps his funniest appearance, he took to the stage to big up his chances in an upcoming ladder match, only to be reminded by Corporate Kane that he wasn’t booked in the bout. He apologised for wasting everyone’s time, then disappeared, leaving the crowd in stitches.
The best thing about Truth is watching his fellow wrestlers react to him. Dolph Ziggler, Roman Reigns, and even Brock Lesnar can be seen cracking up as Truth goes off on the mic. It’s said that Vince finds him hilarious - he has a golden ticket.
