WWE SmackDown's Johnny Gargano posted a social media update to share an emotional message following R-Truth's shocking departure from the Stamford-based promotion. Earlier today, the veteran revealed that he has been released from the global juggernaut.

Johnny Gargano and his #DIY tag team partner Tommaso Ciampa have featured in several humorous segments with R-Truth. The multi-time WWE 24/7 Champion had conversations with the two stars, referring to them as Shawn Michaels and Triple H of D-Generation X. Gargano and Ciampa were the first team to challenge Truth and The Miz for the World Tag Team Championship after Awesome Truth won the title at WrestleMania XL.

Earlier today, Tommaso Ciampa broke character and penned a heartwarming message for R-Truth in a social media update. Gargano also did the same and took to his Instagram stories to post a picture of himself hugging the veteran. He referred to Truth as a one-of-a-kind, universally loved human being in an emotional message.

"A UNIVERSALLY LOVED HUMAN BEING AND TALENT. A GENUINE 1 OF 1❤️ @RONKILLINGS1," he wrote.
