R-Truth Explains WWE Return, WWE Making Lilian Look Bad?

R-Truth's Future In Question, HBK's Status, DiBiase/Orton
-- In an interview with SLAM! Wrestling, R-Truth reveals why he returned to World Wrestling Entertainment. "It was time for me to come back home. I was ready to excel, I felt that I had grown up, matured and am a grown man now, I was the truth. I was ready to take my craft to a higher level. I weighed my options over there, I was accepted back home and I am here to stomp with the big dogs and I am loving it, I am like a kid in a candy shop," R-Truth told SLAM!. "It is different coming back. When I was K-Kwik I was a younger guy, and had no idea of the things I had to do until now in part of knowing the business and being part of it. That includes ring work, locker room work, being on the road, in the public's eye, just knowing the business. I have learned a lot and love the opportunities being back at WWE. I am looking at things in a whole different perspective in being a grown man now."

-- Today is SmackDown General Manager Theodore Long's birthday. He turns 62 years old.

-- WWE cut a number of developmental talents over the weekend including Espiral (Sicodelico, Jr.), Kris Logan (Brian Cage), Aiden Frost (Jason Riggs), Troy Jackman (Ian Richardson) and Fletcher Chase (Jason Garrison). Apparently, WWE isn't through yet. It's being said that more cuts within developmental are expected.

-- As seen last night on Raw, Lilian Garcia made a noticeable miscue by announcing a Triple Threat Match for the Number One Contendership to the WWE Divas Championship. However, there were only two Divas in the match � Alicia Fox and Gail Kim. Garcia addressed the announcing mishap this morning on her Twitter account. "Was told that it was going to be a Triple Threat match so that is what I announced. That's Live TV for ya. Only doing my job," Garcia wrote. "Cause I got told by the ref in the ring after my announcement that it was a singles match. Things not always what they seem." It's been speculated that some people backstage may have purposefully given her false information considering WWE has a history of making talent who are on their way out of the company look bad. While that may have been the case, it's worth noting that there were in fact plans for the match to be a three-way at one point.
