R-Truth’s announcement that he is leaving the WWE after 17 years shocked and saddened fans, talent across the industry.
Here is what many had to say about Ron Killings:
The number of times I’ve been on a card with Ron and he was one of the most over performers on the card – even if it was during a time when he wasn’t being featured on TV – I can’t even count.
One of the funniest and best out there ! https://t.co/FUYuBRwrWq

I love R-Truth so much! Nobody’s presence on TV made me smile, or laugh more than his.

It’s guaranteed joy when he’s a part of a segment.. He’s also my dad’s favorite WWE Superstar of all time.
The McAfees are bummed aht but we all know R Truth will continue to bless the world with his BIG ass brain

No one made me laugh backstage more than Ron. I’ve known this man for 13 years. He treated me like a brother from the very first day. Never saw him in a bad mood. A man who spread kindness and joy every chance he could. https://t.co/YBO8gaGEfN

Ron, you are the life and soul of WWE, utterly loved by each and everyone of us; one of the very few wrestlers to have no “haters” at all, you have that special talent🩷
This is the saddest, most heartbreaking release I have ever seen since being a fan, I am incredibly upset for… pic.twitter.com/zzLqWyVmOI

This is devastating. This man is a G.O.A.T in WWE. Just involved in a storyline with the WWE champ. Just had new merch released & then he gets released!? Whoever is responsible for this asinine decision needs to get B slapped! Thank you Truth for doing the dang thang for the fans…

R-Truth, you are truly the best comedic character in the WWE world and you were one of the best wrestlers in history. We thank you for your wonderful career and despite being fifty years old, you give a better performance than many others.

Jesus… this honestly just crushed my day and legit teared up. Thank you so much R-Truth for an amazing and legendary WWE run. Thank you for always being the best and funniest guy you could possibly be and putting smiles on all of our faces for all of these years. We’ll miss… pic.twitter.com/EoYp8t6KfO
