WWE Tough Enough: 5 Options to Replace Hulk Hogan
WWE.com
Bully Ray/Bubba Ray Dudley
Bubba Ray Dudley is reportedly done with his latest stint in TNA as Bully Ray. He had just returned to be an on-screen authority figure last week. Reports came out that he was upset with the company but it turned out they were simply finished using him. With Dudley out of the picture with TNA, could this be his opening to return to WWE?
The question from this is why would Dudley return to WWE in this fashion?
Well, he resides in Orlando, Florida, a short ride away from Full Sail University in Winter Park. He also has his 3D Academy with longtime tag team partner D’von Dudley/Devon. Dudley claims the two are in their best shape in 15 years.
We also know that Bubba watches Tough Enough. He expressed support for Patrick Clark following his elimination earlier this week.
The most important thing from this may be WWE’s interest in Dudley. They wanted him to appear at the NXT live events in Philadelphia back in May. However, he suffered an injury and the company was understandable with it. Tommy Dreamer would take his place and wrestle Baron Corbin on both nights.
If the want for Bubba is still there, could this be a potentially permanent reunion fans have wanted to see?
Who do you think should replace Hulk Hogan as a Tough Enough judge?
