50 Things You Learn Binge-Watching Every WWE Royal Rumble
15. R-Truth Had A Moment Nobody Remembers
R-Truth is one of those unsung heroes who's still purring in WWE, so anytime there's an excuse to give him his flowers? Take it. Sure, his 24/7 Title stuff grated hard after a while, but Truth is one of the few to get comedy right under Vince's watch, and that should earn the guy a Hall Of Fame ring alone. He was swimming upstream against a toilet humour tide there!
Get ready for an insane realisation whilst watching the 2010 Rumble.
Truth entered at #25 and immediately dumped both Mark Henry and Big Show out of the match. Typically, it takes multiple workers to eliminate even one of those guys, and WWE makes a big song and dance about the spot to kill a few minutes. Not on this occasion. Truth made it look easy, and it happened so quickly most have forgotten all about his giant double elimination in years since it happened.
Next question: Where was R-Truth to stop the pain of Show and Kane wrecking momentum in the 2015 Rumble, eh? Eh?! WWE should have a Batman-style searchlight for times like that. You're needed, Truth. Go do your thing and save the fans from boredom. That's what he did back in 2010 amidst all the Shawn Michaels-led drama and Edge's victory celebrations.
Less than five mins later, Truth was eliminated by Kofi Kingston, but he'd done his bit for the cause. Perhaps this observation is going in two footed on Henry and Show, but it was just so unexpected to see them thrown out of the Rumble this way. Most others have surely forgotten about it too.
