R-Truth is finding creative ways to prove to Damian Priest, Finn Balor, Rhea Ripley and Dominik Mysterio that he can be an indispensable member of the Judgement Day.
Truth has been on a mission to become a full-fledged member of the faction despite most of the group\'s dismissals. However, that could change in storyline after the former two-time WWE United States Champion has shown that he is a money-maker.
On the January 15 episode of WWE Monday Night Raw, Priest had a backstage segment with Truth ahead of their tag team match. The man currently in possession of the Men\'s Money In The Bank briefcase confronted Truth about selling one of his new collaborative t-shirts with Judgement Day. However, the former WWE United States Champion calmed his concerns when he gave Priest a stack of cash from the proceeds.
Truth also noted that everyone in the group would get a cut of the profits and that he made a new collaborative t-shirt for \'Tom and Nick Mysterio.\'
WWE has released new merchandise on the WWE Shop called \"The Judgment Day & R-Truth Three Amigos T-Shirt,\" featuring Truth and \"Dirty Dom\" for $32.99. This marks the third t-shirt since the storyline between Truth and Judgement Day began, which may show the success of their collaboration.
Finn Balor Very Happy With R-Truth Selling T-Shirts
Later in the show, Truth teamed with The Miz to take on Priest and Balor. Before it could start, Truth gave Balor and Mysterio a handful of $100 to share the success of their t-shirt sales. It\'s worth noting that McDonagh, who was at ringside, didn\'t get anything because, in the storyline, he lost his spot in the group to Truth.
Judgment Day would defeat the \"babyfaces\" after Priest landed South Of Heaven on Truth. Despite giving them issues, both Balor and Mysterio were elated after the match and thankful for Truth.
In a Twitter post, Balor shared a backstage video of himself and Mysterio looking at the money that Truth gave them. While expressing their happiness, Mysterio mentioned that McDonagh didn\'t get his money cut.
Balor responded, \"He don\'t deserve a cut. His name is not on the shirt.\" While that comment could be in jest, this could lead to more implications for the group.
Will Judgement Day accept R-Truth?
In the tag team match, WWE fans noticed Priest was unhappy after landing the South Of Heaven on Truth. In the backstage segment between them, he noted that the rest of the group was not thrilled with Truth\'s antics. As the former WWE United States Champion becomes more involved with the faction, this could lead to internal issues between Judgement Day.
McDonagh is already having issues with Truth, but Mysterio and Balor may also get fed up with the ongoing antics. This could lead to Priest being put on the spot to handle Truth, and he may be conflicted. The group has had issues, but this longtime WWE veteran could be the catalyst for Judgement Day finally butting heads.
Currently, it seems the group will continue trying to get along with Truth as he shows his worth. However, it seems only a matter of time before something will push them too far.
