5 WWE Characters We Never Saw

2. Little Jimmy

Has R-Truth ever been more entertaining than when Little Jimmy was by his side? The idea of R-Truth as a main event heel was as appealing in 2011 as it is today (ie; not very), yet Truth somehow managed to make something approaching chicken salad from it all. No one was buying him as a threat in the ring - but his antics outside the squared circle were a whole heap of fun.

Little Jimmy was R-Truth's 'imaginary' friend, but an imaginary friend who got his own 'unseen photos' archive on WWE. This was the moment that the former NWA World Heavyweight Champion truly fell into the abyss of insanity. It was entertaining, yet somewhat sinister at the same time. Truth blamed Little Jimmy for his failings, but the object of his anxiety was the WWE Universe.

As with most things, WWE decided that this dead horse needed to be flogged until nothing but bone remained. Little Jimmy became more of a slapstick aside than a sinister target of Truth's neurosis. Truth went on to form the hugely underrated Awesome Truth team, but less than a year later he was back to being a somewhat toothless babyface.
