WUTS UP (R-Truth's push, apparently)


I don't mind R-Truth. He's good in the ring. He's fun to watch. He gets people excited for his matches. Does that mean he deserves a shot at the WWE Championship? ...Yes! Lots of complaints over the net of R-Truth getting put in the triple threat at (Not So) Extreme Rules over John Morrison (apparently). I'll admit I was one of those people raising my pitchfork in RAGE that someone I wasn't so keen on was getting a chance at the top over Dolph Ziggler. You know, despite the fact there's no way of even knowing if Morrison or Ziggler were ever even going to be in that match. But hey, I'm a wrestling fan, we're not known for looking at things logically.

But come on guys, there's no harm in letting Truth get his first shot at the top. It's not like he's about to win and dethrone The Miz, he's probably only in there to give Miz the cheeky win in the match to let him brag about another victory over Cena. But it makes him look good, which is something that Truth needs a lot more than Ziggler or Morrison. If either of those were put in the match, they'd lose and look like choke artists. Ziggler's already suffered through that with the Intercontinental Championship and the World Heavyweight Championship. Is it really going to kill him to sit around and wait for a viable shot, rather than take the fall in a triple threat that won't matter two weeks after the PPV?
