Triple H tried to shift the spotlight to Worlds Collide—but fans weren’t having it.

Hours after El Hijo del Vikingo reclaimed the AAA Mega Championship from Alberto El Patron, Triple H posted a congratulatory tweet hyping Vikingo’s title win and his upcoming match against Chad Gable. Instead of celebrating, fans completely hijacked the post, turning it into a fiery protest over WWE’s recent releases—especially R-Truth and Carlito.

The tweet read: “Congratulations to @vikingo_aaa! The stakes just got higher for #WorldsCollide this Saturday… @luchalibreaaa.” It was accompanied by a clip of Vikingo’s title victory. But within seconds, the replies were overwhelmed by furious fans demanding accountability for R-Truth’s shocking departure.

One fan wrote, “JUSTICIA POR R-TRUTH.” Another said, “You let go of TRUTH FOR REAL BRO?!?!! 😡 @RonKillings.” A third didn’t hold back either: “Bro thinks he can act like nothing happened.”

The outrage wasn’t just limited to R-Truth. Carlito’s exit was also brought up repeatedly, with one user posting, “What are the stakes for R-Truth and Carlito?” Others accused WWE of sucking the joy out of its product: “You took away our agents of fun… now it’s all so serious.”

A particularly emotional comment read, “Mr. H, what are you doing 😭 A lot of us love R-Truth & Carlito… They gave us permission to laugh while experiencing the product! Now it’s all so serious. 💔”

Another fan urged a direct message to WWE leadership: “Whoever runs this page should relay to HHH himself that us diehard fans are struggling to be fans after this most recent move of not keeping @RonKillings.”

And perhaps the most blunt: “Rehire R-Truth right now.”

Triple H’s attempt to shift momentum toward Vikingo’s big moment backfired instantly, with the fanbase laser-focused on what they see as WWE turning its back on two beloved veterans without warning or explanation. The absence of any official company statement about R-Truth’s release has only fueled the anger.

What started as a title celebration turned into a digital uprising—and WWE is now left dealing with a public relations mess they weren’t prepared for.
