John Cena acknowledged R-Truth chants on WWE SmackDown
The final SmackDown before the Money in the Bank PLE took place at the Dignity Health Arena in Bakersfield, California. The main event segment saw the appearance of the competitors of the tag team match set for the Money in the Bank event.
Logan Paul launched a sneak attack on Jey Uso and John Cena went after his heated rival Cody Rhodes.
Amidst the brawl, Cena delivered an AA to Rhodes and fans began to loudly chant 'We Want Truth.' Right after, he grabbed the microphone and fired back at the audience saying,
"You can't handle the truth."
This was a direct shot at R-Truth's release from WWE which has not been received well by the audience.
The former WWE United States Champion was last involved in a program with John Cena.
It began at the WWE Backlash PLE when Truth assisted Cena in his match against Randy Orton. However, he was not rewarded well as Cena put him through a table with an AA at the post-show media conference. This set up a non-title singles match between Truth and Cena for the May edition of WWE Saturday Night's Main Event.
The Unseen 17 utilized a low blow and AA to defeat R-Truth at the event. His last appearance came on the SmackDown following the SNME show after which he announced that WWE was not going to renew his contract. With Cena's remark, he would surely get a lot more heat for his heel run, while it remains to be seen if the WWE regime would listen to their audience and bring back R-Truth.

In the bustling world of Bollywood, where star power often overshadows personal narratives, one woman has carved a distinct identity, earning the moniker 'Lady Ambani' for her entrepreneurial sense and philanthropic endeavors. Who is this powerful woman? This remarkable woman is Mana Shetty (earlier known as Monisha Kadri), who is the wife of Bollywood actor Suniel Shetty. Born to a Gujarati Muslim architect, Iftikhar M. Kadri, and a Punjabi Hindu social activist, Vipula Kadri, Mana was exposed to diverse cultural and professional influences from an early age. Her siblings, Isha Mehra and Rahul Kadri, have also pursued careers in social activism and architecture, respectively, reflecting the family's commitment to societal development. How did Mana Shetty begin her professional front? Mana's professional journey commenced at age of 15 when she co-founded a fashion label, 'Mana & Isha,' with her sister. Her entrepreneurial spirit led her to establish R-House, a luxury decor and lifestyle store in Mumbai, and to spearhead the S2 real estate project alongside her husband, resulting in the construction of 21 opulent villas, each spanning approximately 6,500 square feet. Beyond business, Mana is deeply involved in philanthropy, actively supporting the NGO Save The Children India and organizing fundraising events like the Araaish exhibition to aid underprivileged women and children. Where did Mana Shetty meet Suniel Shetty? Suniel Shetty met Mana Shetty (then Mana Kadri) at a pastry shop through a mutual friend. It was love at first sight for Suniel. Their friendship gradually turned into love, and despite coming from different religious and cultural backgrounds, they dated for almost 9 years before getting married on December 25, 1991. After marriage, Mana converted her religion from Muslim to Hindu and dropped the name Monisha Kadri. The couple has two children, Athiya and Ahan Shetty. Why is Mana Shetty referred to as Lady Ambani? Mana Shetty is known as the 'Lady Ambani' because of her powerful presence in business and philanthropy, similar to how the Ambani family is seen in India's corporate world. She runs a luxury lifestyle store (R House), a successful real estate venture with Suniel Shetty (S2 Realty), and supports major charitable causes like Save The Children India. Her success in multiple sectors, strong social influence and high-profile lifestyle have earned her this nickname, highlighting her stature beyond just being a star wife. As per Siasat, Mana and Suniel Shetty have amassed a combined net worth estimated at Rs 500 crore, reflecting their diverse investments in real estate, fashion, hospitality and in the field of entertainment.
