Kyle Busch Wins WWE 24/7 Championship With Help From Michael Waltrip
Yet another WWE 24/7 Champion has been crowned and, once again, it’s not even a WWE superstar.
Famous NASCAR Champion Kyle Busch pinned then-champion R-Truth on WWE Monday Night RAW this week to win the title. Busch had some help from NASCAR legend Michael Waltrip, who was secretly wearing a referee shirt. Waltrip distracted R-Truth and Busch pinned the champion. Waltrip counted the pin to make the title change official.
DO A VICTORY LAP, @KyleBusch!

At first, it seemed like Busch and Waltrip were helping R-Truth as they helped him hide from his usual contenders, but the duo clearly had other plans.
