A WWE star has revealed that he wasn’t told ahead of time that R-Truth would be interfering in his match at Money in the Bank.

With R-Truth announcing his WWE departure on June 1, the popular star was ultimately brought back for the June 7 Money in the Bank event.

R-Truth – who has since re-introduced himself as Ron Killings – interfered in the closing moments of the John Cena & Logan Paul vs Cody Rhodes & Jey Uso, allowing Rhodes to capitalise and pin Cena.

Speaking on his Impaulsive podcast, Logan Paul noted that this return came as a total surprise to him, noting:

“I go through this table, I’m cooked, on the cusp of death. I’m sitting there just selling but not selling because this s**t’s real and it all hurts so bad, but I hit the move so I’m excited.

“I’m sitting there like basically knocked out, and Cody (Rhodes) and John (Cena) are in the ring, I’m rooting for my guy John, ‘Get us that win John!’ Then dude, out of nowhere comes f**king R-Truth who I thought was fired, I thought the WWE let him go.

“Also, here’s the thing, no one told me R-Truth was coming, I didn’t even know! So bro, I’m sitting there and he comes back, I’m like, ‘What the f**k is he doing here?’

When co-host Mike Majlak asked if he became a fan during Killings’ WWE return, Logan continued:

“Yes, in the moment and dude, I’m selling, I’m like ‘Hey… No!’ Then he hit John and we lost the f**king match!”
