The first two-hour WWE Raw saw a backstage segment in which R-Truth confronted The Miz after his betrayal last week.
This comes after Karrion Kross’ mind games continued to play out with The Miz and saw R-Truth forgiving his tag team partner for his actions.
The Miz, however, was less than forgiving in his words, pointing out that he turned on Truth and had his own future in mind, as can be seen below this news story.
This led to R-Truth trying to fix things by suggesting a match, with Miz going one further and suggesting they face each other on next week’s WWE Raw.
Later on Raw Talk, The Miz revealed his reason for the Awesome Truth split in more detail, saying:
“Why a match? Because I am put in random match after random match after random match with no notification, so why not just do a random match with R-Truth so I can get away from him.
“I love R-Truth, I think everyone loves R-Truth, everyone has a soft spot in their heart for R-Truth. But I am here (holds hand up) with everything.”
The Miz would then go on to note the issues he’s had teaming with Truth, stating:
“It’s fun to watch, it is fun and entertaining to watch, but to actually have to live through it – think about what I have to go through, to live through and be a tag team partner with R-Truth.
“Is it good to have confusion in a tag team? It helped in the beginning because it was fun, we could play off of each other, we were winning, we were doing things, then when we got the titles, he would just put us in random matches. I would tell him not to. Please stop. Please stop doing that Truth. Please stop. And he just wouldn’t.
“Then he goes out and gets injured. What happens when he gets injured? He goes away, I’m still here. I try to be the hero if you will, to go after the guy that injures him, and what happens when Truth comes back? Truth just says, ‘Well, I’m back’.
“Why didn’t you call me? Why didn’t you tell me? And then he puts us in another random match. I am sick of it. I am tired.”
In August, R-Truth was the victim of an attack by Bronson Reed that left him with “cracked ribs” and “internal bruising.”
On the August 19 episode of WWE Raw, The Miz lost to Reed in a No Disqualification Match and would re-unite with R-Truth on September 30’s Raw.
