R-Truth has been dealing with an arm injury since October. Despite his injury, he did compete at in the WrestleMania Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal this year. Aside from that match, however, Truth hasn’t wrestled since an October 14th, 2017 house show match against Elias.
Truth was backstage at Smackdown last night, however. He appears to be looking for a new tag-team partner as well. Despite coming to believe he is an alien, Truth first asked Tye Dillinger to be his new partner. When that didn’t work out, Truth then challenged Samoa Joe to face Dillinger in a future match.
WWE.com has released video of the interaction:
