Summary
– R-Truth addresses his Undisputed World Title match with John Cena on SmackDown
– Truth compares Cena’s obsession with power to Gollum from Lord of the Rings
– Saturday Night’s Main Event marks their first singles match since 2011
R-Truth is set for the biggest match of his WWE career as he prepares to face John Cena for the Undisputed World Title at Saturday Night’s Main Event in Tampa. On SmackDown, Truth fired up the Savannah crowd and opened up about what this opportunity means to him, describing Cena as his childhood hero turned distant rival.
In a heartfelt promo, Truth explained that the John Cena he’s facing now isn’t the same man he once looked up to. He compared Cena’s obsession with holding the championship to Gollum clutching the One Ring, saying power and fame have left Cena disconnected from the world. Still, Truth promised to do everything he could to bring the old Cena back—even if it means fighting his idol in the process.
As the WWE Universe rallies behind him, Truth ended his segment with a bold message: “if Cena wins, we riot.” With Saturday’s showdown marking their first singles clash since 2011, the stakes couldn’t be higher for both men.
