It worked with Truth, it can work with Carlito. We just cannot allow WWE and TKO as a whole to continue this BS.

Something awful happened to myself recently, but if nobody has told you today...
I’m proud of you.
For feeling.
For reaching out.
For still choosing life.
You’re not alone anymore. You’ve got someone in your corner—and I’ll stay right here whenever you need me. 💙

Ludwig Kaiser should be a low card right now because he hasn’t been on TV since March or just make him inactive and just say he wrestles on house shows.

R TRUTH! WWE LISTENED! I think he's listed as Ron Killings, Kind of like how Diesel and Razor Ramon Became Kevin Nash and Scott Hall respectively.

Killings is a tweener in the upper card, and Jacob Fatu is a face with a new image.

R-Truth is now listed as “Ron Killings” now, Jacob FATU is now a face but Ron Killings hasn’t been determined as a face or heel yet, probably a anti hero or serious face
