R-Truth brought joy with his presence and created some of the most iconic and hilarious moments in WWE history that fans still laugh about today.
5. DIY or D-Generation X?
Truth shines in chaotic sequences where misunderstanding prevails, such as the segment between him and DIY (Johnny Gargano & Tomasso Ciampa), when Truth misunderstood them for D-Generation X (Shawn Michaels and Triple H).
Truth, while thanking DIY for saving him from the Judgment Day, mistook Gargano as Shawn Michaels and Ciampa as Triple H, and even dropped the three iconic DX two-word phrase, “Thank You!” However, Truth took it further, calling out Tomasso Ciampa during a segment, only the guy he thought was Ciampa was actually WWE CCO Triple H.
