R-Truth had hopes that WWE would do more with his Little Jimmy character.
SmackDown Superstar R-Truth was a recent guest on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet. While discussing the popularity of his Little Jimmy character, Truth reveals he pitched the idea to Stephanie McMahon that they should make a Little Jimmy action figure that’s just an empty box.
“I asked Stephanie McMahon, could I make a Little Jimmy action figure? She said, what it’s gonna be? I said, nothing, but it’ll be in the box,” Truth said. “She’s like, Oh my gosh. She laughs. She said, Truth, I don’t think we can do that. We got to give them something. I said, Well, I guess put a stick beside them or something. They got the package. She said no, we can’t do that.”
Little Jimmy, an imaginary friend of R-Truth’s, became a staple of his character in 2011. While seldom namedropped nowadays, it is still a fondly remembered part of Truth’s WWE character.
