– Prior to Monday’s taped episode of WWE RAW aired on the USA Network, R-Truth post the following spoiler on his Twitter account:
“Being mr nice guy got me no where! I lost my chance to become WWE champion! Wait’al they get a load of me!”
When his Twitter followers began complaining that he spoiled RAW, Truth deleted the deleted the tweet. Oops! Spoiling a big angle on RAW is a good way for Truth to get heel heat.
– Jim Ross wrote the following comments on Twitter after last night’s RAW:
“Well….not exactly what I had in mind tonight from London. However, paybacks are hell. Ham & egg announcers knocking me are laughable.
“As Chris Farley said in Tommy Boy, ‘Me need sleepy.’ Extreme Rules tag will be bowling shoe ugly but it will be fun…I hope.”
