The executive director of TobaccoFree.org is demanding an apology from R-Truth after the angle on Monday's WWE Raw episode where Truth lit up a cigarette, according to a report by TMZ.
Executive director Patrick Reynolds told TMZ: "For him to smoke in front of (children) is irresponsible. At best, it's thoughtless, and at worst, if he calculated appealing to kids by posing as a bad-boy outlaw, it's evil."
WWE issued a statement to TMZ in response: "The negative effect smoking has on one’s health and physical performance was a part of a storyline on last night’s Monday Night Raw. Negative depictions of tobacco use on television are not unusual and can be seen on other TV-PG shows."
