The Awesome Truth (The Miz & R-Truth) will face #DIY (Johnny Gargano & Tommaso Ciampa) for the WWE World Tag Team Championship on April 22, 2024.
As you can see below in this news article, the WWE Raw Tag Team Championship has been renamed the World Tag Team Championship with The Awesome Truth winning the new championship belt.
The announcement was followed by a No. 1 Contender match between the Creed Brothers, The New Day, and #DIY.
Following #DIY's win, The Miz and R-Truth shared their thoughts on a WWE Digital exclusive, which can be seen below, with The Miz saying:
“Expect the unexpected. When you become tag team champions, you never know what's going to happen.
“And we're ready, we're ready. We know them inside and out. I feel like we're very good friends.”
R-Truth helps clear up the confusion in his own way, asking:
“We have a great relationship with them. Are you talking about Shawn (Michaels) and Triple H? Yeah, we're good friends with them.”
Before the two headed off to reveal the new title, Miz admitted that was definitely who he was talking about.
When it comes to #DIY, they share their thoughts on Raw Talk. An excerpt can be seen below. Ciampa said:
“I've been with The Miz, I've been fighting The Miz, and now we're back with The Miz…and you're bringing in an element of truth.”
Where Gargano says, “I don't know what he's going to do next,” R-Truth makes a timely appearance and says, “I don't know what he's going to do next.”
“Hey, Triple H, I don’t mean to cause any trouble, but you’re thinking people will take pictures of you pointing fingers later.
“Me and Miz are tag team champions, so I want to get that picture.”
Recognizing that Triple H's time is valuable, R-Truth continued:
“Okay, I know it's a bad time.”
Gargano offered something like an olive branch and said:
“He can point to you.”
However, R-Truth was reluctant to buy into the moment, pointing out:
“No, it has to be the two of us, me and Miz.
“Sorry, you finish what you've been doing. We'll get that picture.”
The departing R-Truth leaves a bit of confusion in his wake, leaving Ciampa thinking:
“Does he know there's a tag team title match next week?”
Mr. Gargano would answer, “I have no clue,” because it's not clear whether the truth will be advantageous or disadvantageous.
