WWE Undisputed Champion, John Cena vs. R-Truth, Friday Night SmackDown Match Preview

Will Ron Killings be able to do what R-Truth couldn't?

John Cena, a former WWE Legend, has been so hellbent on ruining wrestling that he not only turned WWE universe against him but also his biggest fan, R-Truth. He turned a fun-loving R-Truth who loved him like a brother into Ron Killing, who won’t take disrespect as an option. Ron Killing has been yearning to get his hands on John Cena, and he will finally get his match tonight.

R-Truth was released from WWE following his defeat against JC Mateo, but re-signed a contract with him on June 7, 2025. Whether it was a planned move or WWE rehired R-Truth on public demand is still a mystery. The crowd chanted, “We want Truth,” in every arena WWE aired from since the day R-Truth was released to MITB, where he returned to help Jey Uso and Cody Rhodes. So what made a fan, his hero’s biggest enemy?

John Cena Loved by R-Truth, Hated by Ron Killings

R-Truth, while addressing the crowd, claimed that R-Truth is soft and the one who returned to WWE is Ron Killings. R-Truth supported John Cena when no one was ready to support his heel turn. He also helped John Cena retain his title against arch-rival Randy Orton by distracting him. It allowed John Cena to deliver a low blow and hit Randy on his head with the Championship belt to retain his title.

John Cena was in the press conference when R-Truth came to congratulate him and said, he always believed in him even when everyone said John suck and cant wrestle. It didn’t go well with Cena, who delivered an Attitude Adjustment to R-Truth and sent him through the table. R-Truth vowed to beat some sense into John Cena, and the match between them was announced at SNME.

John Cena tried to hit R-Truth with the Championship belt, but stopped for a while, giving the illusion that he turned face again. He then delivered a low blow to R-Truth to win the match. The crushing defeat changed something inside R-Truth as he returned to WWE and attacked John Cena, costing him the match at MITB. He then attacked John Cena twice on the last SmackDown, forcing Nick Aldis to announce a match between him and Cena.

John Cena has been pinned only once since Elimination Chamber, and that too due to R-Truth. The Last Real Champion is clearly not happy with it. John Cena was all set to face CM Punk at Night of Champions in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, but will now have to cross the hurdle named Ron Killings first.
