R-Truth’s Birthday Blunder: Mistaking Ciampa for Triple H

One big thing: R-Truth sends Triple H birthday wishes to wrong wrestler

WWE superstar R-Truth continued his streak of comedic mix-ups by wishing Triple H a happy birthday on social media — with a photo of Tommaso Ciampa.

The details:

• R-Truth posted a photo of Tommaso Ciampa on X (formerly Twitter) with the caption: “Happy Birthday @TripleH🎊🎂🎈🎉🎁 I am very proud of you🙏🏾… The #CerebralAssassin.”
• This isn’t the first time R-Truth has confused the two wrestlers. He previously referred to Ciampa as Triple H during a RAW segment.
• The mix-up comes shortly after R-Truth and The Miz were presented with new WWE World Tag Team Titles by Triple H at WrestleMania 40.

Why it matters:

R-Truth’s consistent character work and comedic timing have made him a fan favorite. These “mistakes” showcase his ability to maintain kayfabe and generate buzz even outside the ring.

By the numbers:

• Triple H turned 55 on July 27, 2023
• R-Truth has been with WWE for over 15 years, debuting in 2008

What’s next:

Fans will be watching to see if Triple H responds to the mix-up, potentially setting up future comedic interactions between R-Truth, Ciampa, and The Game.
