R-Truth further delved deeper into the aspects of life while urging people to make their memories count. “Life doesn’t come with a handbook, experience is the best teacher, take time to stop, breathe, listen, learn and absorb. We create, make and remember the memories. Make’em count”, the WWE superstar concluded.

R-Truth is one of WWE’s most recognisable wrestlers with a wide fan following amongst wrestling fans. He has won several championships over his decades-long career with WWE. R-Truth had another crowning moment at the ‘Show of Shows’ WrestleMania 40 which was held at the Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. R-Truth had teamed up with the ‘A-Lister’ Miz to compete in the Six-Pack Tag Team Ladder Match for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship. They combined with the A-Town Down Under to defeat Judgement Day, DIY, The New Day and the New Catch Republic.

Apart from the epic tag-team ladder match, WrestleMania 40 also witnessed several title-deciding matches. Cody Rhodes finished his story as he finally took down Roman Reigns in the main event. Logan Paul retained his crown as the United States Champion against Kevin Owens and Randy Orton. The Scottish Terminator Drew McIntyre defeated Seth Rollins for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

His title reign did not last long after Damian Priest decided to cash in his contract. In the women’s action, Rhea Ripley successfully defended her World Women’s Championship against Becky Lynch on the grand night. Meanwhile, Bayley sealed the WWE Women’s Championship crown against Iyo Sky.
