R-Truth is one of the most entertaining wrestlers on the WWE roster. The record 39-time WWE 24/7 Champion has proved himself both in and outside of the ring. Since the last decade, whenever R-Truth comes on-screen, the WWE Universe is in for some laughs. Even the Beast Incarnate, Brock Lesnar, and Paul Heyman fell prey to the tactics of Truth.

“I remember Heyman called me to the gorilla-like 20 minutes before we were supposed to go out. I had no promo, they gave me nothing.” Heyman revealed they didn’t want Lesnar to know about the promo. The promo was about R-Truth challenging Heyman at Royal Rumble.

Heyman said “Truth, you’re a funny a guy and we have a bet that you won’t be able to make Brock laugh. I think you can, but they don’t think you can. So just wing it, we’re just going to wing it out there.”

However, when Brock came in, Truth thought they should tell Brock about the segment. “Let’s tell Brock. I don’t want him to be surprised!’ But Paul was like ‘This is going to be great.”

R-Truth later found out Paul Heyman was right. The segment was a huge success. R Truth made his way to the ring and cut an incredible promo as the 24/7 Champion. He challenged Paul Heyman instead of Lesnar at the Royal Rumble. The arena burst out laughing, and so did Lesnar.

“I did all I could to hold myself from laughing when I saw Brock bust out laughing because of Paul Heyman’s facial expression. The magic just went on man, it kept going on. And after that segment was over, we’re in the back and Brock was still laughing.”

The segment made Brock Lesnar so happy that he offered to work with R-Truth in the future. Lesnar said to him, ‘Bro, we got to do something together. There’s something there. I don’t know what it is, but there’s something there.’

R Truth revealed this segment was one of his career highlights saying “that is one of the highest moments in my career right there.”

It was a great moment for fans as they got to see a more “humane” version of Lesnar and Heyman.

Lesnar and Heyman have both gone their separate ways. However, this segment will remain one of the funniest in the history of WWE.
