R-Truth, aka Ron Killings, has been on a ruthless streak in the month of June, especially since his return at Money in the Bank 2025. On 20th June, he crossed paths with a former Intercontinental Champion, teasing a huge match against him.
The context of this is that on SmackDown, Kit Wilson of Pretty Deadly was set to take on Aleister Black. The recently returned WWE star, as you know, is a former Intercontinental Champion. However, his match against Kit Wilson was canceled after R-Truth launched a brutal assault and put Wilson in the STF.
Backstage, Aleister Black went up to R-Truth’s face and asked why he was getting involved in his business. It was a huge tease for a match-up until Damian Priest swooped in as the voice of reason and ensured that nothing bad happened.
Damian Priest then ensured that the situation de-escalated and that Black would have another opportunity in the future. After that tense moment, the former World Heavyweight Champion told Ron Killings that he wasn’t taking the correct approach, encouraging him to focus on Cena instead.
After the match, Damian Priest said that they could go out drinking together, and Killings seemed to like that idea.
Damian Priest looks set to face Jacob Fatu in a showdown in the near future.
