WWE pulls off R-Truth shocker at Money in the Bank 2025 PPV, leaving John Cena shocked. Check full results
R-Truth made a shocking return at the WWE Money in the Bank 2025 pay-per-view, days after announcing that he had been released from the company. Truth made his presence felt during the main event between the teams of John Cena-Logal Paul and Cody Rhodes-Jey Uso. Truth made a surprise return, wearing a black hoodie, as he attacked John Cena with the WWE Universal Title. In the end, Cody Rhodes was able to take advantage and win the contest for himself and Jey Uso.
After attacking Cena with the belt, the man in the hoodie removed his mark, revealing himself to be R-Truth, much to the elation of the entire Los Angeles crowd. Cody Rhodes then hit Cena with a CrossRhodes and the Universal Champion was unable to kick out in time.
After the match ended, commentator Michael Cole discussed the reports of R-Truth being released from WWE and the backlash from fans. Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso celebrated in the ring as John Cena looked on.
This is John Cena's first in-ring defeat ever since becoming the WWE Universal Champion at WrestleMania 41, where he defeated Cody Rhodes for the title.
