Awesome Truth
professional wrestling tag team
Awesome Truth was a professional wrestling tag team in WWE consisting of The Miz and R-Truth. They are one-time World Tag Team Champions. Their initial run started in 2011 with both wrestlers performing as villains, before reuniting as heroic characters in 2024.
History
Formation, dissolution and feud (2011–2012)
On the August 22, 2011 episode of Raw, The Miz and R-Truth attacked Santino Marella before his match and then proceeded to cut a promo bashing Triple H about not using them properly. The next week, R-Truth interfered in The Miz's match and both of them attacked CM Punk. On the September 5 episode of Raw, The Miz and R-Truth, now collectively known as "Awesome Truth", challenged Air Boom (Evan Bourne and Kofi Kingston) to a match for the WWE Tag Team Championship at Night of Champions, but were disqualified after The Miz assaulted a referee during the match. The Miz and R-Truth were subsequently fired by Triple H the following night on Raw SuperShow.
At Hell in a Cell, Awesome Truth attacked Alberto Del Rio, CM Punk, John Cena and referees after the WWE Championship match ended. After this, the entire WWE roster came out to find a way into the Hell in a Cell structure before police officers were able to get the door open and arrest them. On the October 10 episode of Raw SuperShow, Awesome Truth were reinstated by John Laurinaitis.

Why this record matters
The phrase “professional wrestling tag team” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 28, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2678939. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2011, 2024 and 2012.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
