R-Truth Shares His Favorite Memories of the WWE 24/7 Title

– Veteran WWE Superstar R-Truth recently spoke to Insight with Chris Van Vliet about the now-defunct WWE 24/7 Title and his favorite memories with the belt. Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):

R-Truth on the 24/7 Title: “Everybody said it was ugly, yeah. I made it beautiful. I made them accept the [ugly] baby, right?. I went all in. You gotta go all in. Can’t go half way. I had fun, I was able to throw a lot of creative in there. The numbers that it was doing were ridiculous, like 15-20 million views a week.”

On his favorite memories with the title: “Did you know Forbes magazine did a write up about it? Google that. Forbes magazine did a write up about the 24/7 title and the numbers it was doing. So the numbers it was doing were an incentive, it was a booster for me. The plane was good [with Jinder Mahal], Drake’s [Maverick] wedding was good, that was his real wedding, that was funny.” Later in November 2022, the 24/7 Championship was retired amidst little fuss. However, when fans reminisce on the often unmemorable legacy of that title, there is one period they’ll remember — the rib-tickling reigns of R-Truth.

Nikki Cross was the final WWE 24/7 Champion. The title was officially retired during after Cross discarded the title, throwing it in the trash backstage following a November 2022 episode of Monday Night Raw.
