**WWE Releases Veteran Superstar R-Truth**
**STAMFORD, CT – June 1, 2025** – In a surprising turn of events, WWE has released veteran performer R-Truth, real name Ron Killings. The news was confirmed by Killings himself via a post on X (formerly Twitter) earlier today.
“I’m sorry to inform you all,” Killings wrote, “I just got released from WWE. I want to thank WWE for the ride, but MOSTLY I want to thank each and EVERYONE OF YOU who was along for the ride. Thank you for all the love, support, and appreciation you have given me over the years. Thank you.”
Sources have confirmed that this is not a storyline development and that the release is legitimate.
Killings, a long-time fixture in WWE, recently competed at the WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event special event on NBC and Peacock on May 24, 2025, in Tampa, Florida, where he wrestled his “childhood hero.”
Further details surrounding the release remain unclear. Stay tuned to WrestlingHeadlines.com for continued updates as they become available.
