With the announcement of his WWE exit, a number of WWE personalities paid tribute to R-Truth:
I love @RonKillings

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
???????? THANK YOU TRUTH pic.twitter.com/ZswYMvQIzi
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

I’ve said many times that there are a few people in this industry for whom I have unlimited respect, love and admiration for. @RonKillings is at the very top of that list.

An incredible, timeless performer with an unmatched ability to entertain and bring a smile to anyone he…
In all seriousness, this is literally so heartbreaking… Thank you Truth ????

Thank you for everything you’ve done for the business, the doors you opened and being a real OG to the whole locker room. Taught me a lot about the game and how to navigate this business. Ron Killings is timeless! ????????✊???? https://t.co/SIrS3UzDQu pic.twitter.com/FQU2yWT0kx

You are a class act @RonKillings.
— Nattie (@NatbyNature) June 1, 2025
You were amazing to me since day one when I met you doing my first independent wrestling show in the U.S.
Last week I loved seeing how excited you were for the championship match against John Cena. You remind everyone around the world to never… https://t.co/iNVq5UZSaZ pic.twitter.com/wwLGjVc6Tm
Thank you, @RonKillings. I will ALWAYS appreciate you. TVL will have a lot less laughter coming from it. ???? pic.twitter.com/KD64VRKuBG

FCW tryout, 2010. @RonKillings speaks to all of us. Tells his story. How he came from a music background and brought that to wrestling.
— Joaquin Wilde (@joaquinwilde_) June 1, 2025
Someone raises their hand to ask, “what if we dont come from some other background? What if we just love wrestling and want to be wrestlers?”
Truth says, “then thats your story. But its not that interesting. Because everyone has that story.” Yeah I will never forget that moment. Because it was a game changer for me. I realized I might be one dimensional. It forced me to do some soul searching
— Joaquin Wilde (@joaquinwilde_) June 1, 2025
And figure out what else I was passionate about in life, besides pro wrestling. Realized I have always loved music. My DJ/Producer journey started pretty soon after that. And I was able to bring that background into my pro wrestling career too.
— Joaquin Wilde (@joaquinwilde_) June 1, 2025
So in a way, “DJZ” and alot of my early opportunities and successes in wrestling would have never happened without R-Truth. I have gotten to thank him personally and let him know that without him speaking to us at FCW that day, I may not have made it to where I am now.
— Joaquin Wilde (@joaquinwilde_) June 1, 2025
He helped change my trajectory and I just wanted it known publicly. Also because of him, I would have never started making beats, DJ’d on Sway in the Morning, made my Spotify (Wilde We$t) or dropped an entire album remixing Japanese wrestling entrance themes (coming soon).
— Joaquin Wilde (@joaquinwilde_) June 1, 2025
So thank you (again) for everything, Truth! pic.twitter.com/IKSXKNMw0E
