WWE seems to be everywhere, especially when there's a big event that will be watched by millions of people and the game is being played in the same location WWE has a lot of familiarity and history.
Sunday's Super Bowl is taking place at Raymond James Stadium, Tampa, Florida, and as most WWE fans know, the wrestling promotion has been all over the Tampa area in recent months. WrestleMania is coming to the city, WWE has been practically been filming Raw and SmackDown there since the start of the pandemic and it makes sense Vince McMahon would like to see a little cross promotion.
A few WWE Superstars were at the Celebrity Flag Football Game today, among them R-Truth, Titus O'Neil, The Miz and Cesaro. Truth was thanking the fans for coming, when NFL legend Doug Flutie pinned the champ to win the WWE 24/7 Championship. Even though it shouldn't have, the pin took Truth by surprise and The Heisman Trophy winning QB ran around showing off his new gold after getting a three count on the WWE star.
Needless to say, R-Truth was bound and determined to get his baby back. Truth later snuck up on Flutie and pinned the retired NFL'er to win back the belt and begin his 49th reign with the title. You can check out some of the action below:
R-Truth Is The Ultimate WWE Company Guy
As talented as Truth is as a performer, there may be fewer stars as good at promoting the WWE product than he is. The 24/7 Championship has made the rounds on almost every major sports network, on talk shows and with different athletes. This is just the latest.
WWE couldn't ask for a better promotional soldier and when you watch R-Truth do his thing, you can tell he's absolutely loving every second of it.
