Team 3-D/Dudley Boys leaving?!?!??!

[Raven Reaper]

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!!

http://www.wrestlingnewssource.com/news/25928/Big-Update-on-Bully-RayDevon-Dudley-TNA-Futures/

And Devon's new tweet says that despite leaving TNA, He's NOT RETIRING for good.. Whew.

[DLVH84]

What would become of the TNA Television Championship?

[Fignuts]

Hope Bubba goes to WWE. I like his bully character.

[PorkSoda]

Maybe they're going back to Double Double E!

[dronepool]

The WWE tag team division needs them.

Well, it says that the title will be dropped to someone else if he loses his last match then. Dunno who.

[Cool King]

I remember posting this a few months ago. Seems like the guy was telling the truth.

[KyleEmmott]

They'll be back by the end of next year. I'm certain.

[Ruien]

Would the WWE really want them back? The tag team division is florishing without them right now. You have three hot tag teams and a few jobber tag teams out there. Where would they fit in? The focus point on the tag team division can't be on the Dudley's but if they comeback (Especially as a face team) that is the route it will go.

Unless they are coming in for 6 months to put over the younger tag teams and then work as agents they need to stay far far away.

[loopydate]

TNA caught lightning in a bottle with the Bully Ray character. If they let their most entertaining heel's contract expire, they're dumber than even THEIR reputation.

Devon, on the other hand, turned his career around as well, but losing him would not be nearly the blow that Ray would. I could see Devon returning as another member of Booker's administration, jumping in as an in-ring enforcer from time to time.

I never was a huge fan of them back in the day, but I'm all aboard the Bully Ray bandwagon.....

[JimmyMess]

D-VON..... GET THE TABLES!

[Heisenberg]

I always enjoyed seeing a Dudley Death Drop.

I agree they have developed enough as individual characters where they could split to make the best of their respective situations for now to keep a Dudley Boys / Deadly Bros. reunion rare, special, and more marketable.

I hope not Garrett Bischoff. He still has a long way to go.

[Skippord]

I've watched a lot of Impact recently and still haven't seen the TV title defended once. Is it an ironic title?

That's TNA for you, they change their minds so fast. Hell, Devon was even willing to defend that title every week and did very well doing so.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

oh god if the Dudleys came back to WWE

jism all over the place

love the Dudleys

[Keith]

They would revive the Tag Team Division just like that.

Thing is, who knows if they'd want to reunite as a tag team? Maybe they want to do their thang individually.

But if they came back as a tag team, it'd be great for the Tag Team scene.

[Road Warrior]

Love to see them come through the crowd and put AJ through a table.

[Schlomey]

The bully character is very much tv 14. I assume if they do have another wwe run it would be a piss poor watered down version of all of their former incarnations.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Yeahhhh Dudleys back in WWE would be swell.

[Innovator]

Good. If TNA didn't resign them a long time ago, it's their loss.

wwe tag division is flourishing???

[Schlomey]

we lost reks. there is no tag division :( lol

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Just think of all the new guys there are for the Dudleys to put through tables. Would pique my interest.

[loopydate]

wwe tag division is flourishing???

Well, yeah! There's... uh...

Hm...

R-Truth and Kofi are the champions...

And...

The Primetime Players...

And the teams that lose to those two teams on TV so they can keep them apart until NoC, so Epico & Primo and...

Um...

Yep. Flourishing.

[erickman]

if they did go back to wwe then bully ray needs to stay alone and start beating up on the b-a-star wrestlers and bully them there is a story there.

[loopydate]

Wait, I forgot about the Usos!

Of course, so did WWE...

[Impeccable]

[Ruien]

Yes. The tag team division is flourishing. The means it is growing at a rapid rate and is successful. Compared to what the division was 6 months ago it is flourishing.

[Rollermacka]

I thought it would be a bad idea for TNA to turn Bully face, its a worse idea to let him leave. Devon is good, I think he found a good spot tagging with Garrett Bischoff (makes Garrett slightly more bareable). It must be a money thing and I would say give them what they want. Bully is just about ready for a world title run. Id say have Devon drop the TV title and have him a full time tag teaming with Garrrett. On top of both of them improving so much reciently, I read they're both help out the younger wrestlers a lot. Their wrestling school is a place to develop talent, this way they have OVW, Team 3D, and the Nasty Boyz schools to get talent from (yes, I used the words Nasty Boyz and talent in the same sentance)

[Keith]

I wonder if WWE would push Bully Ray as a top heel on RAW or Smackdown.

I can kinda see a feud between him and Cena happening.

He's good on the mic, at least.

[Hanso Amore]

Bully could come in for a short upper card feud like Tensai was supposed to do.

Or they could come back for a short while.

They are the victim of the times of today where there arent territories. They are some of the few guys who peak very late. Sadly its TNA, or WWE and I am not sure they fit in todays WWE

[KyleEmmott]

I just don't see a way WWE can bring them back and not put them together. I mean they are THE DUDLEYS!! They're recognized as that and bringing them back as singles would just feel wrong. lol

[Fignuts]

Really wish that at some point we would have gotten a good, long, Dudleys vs Road Warriors feud.

Could have been the greatest tag feud of all time.

[Swiss Ultimate]

I was pretty happy with their feud with Sabu and RVD.

[Gertner]

Great news. Time for the Dudleyz to leave the minor leagues and come back to the majors.

[Nicky Fives]

I don't think tables are PG-13 anymore.....

[Hanso Amore]

That would have been nice. Talkers who could hang with the Warriors.

I would kill to have a 1998 Dudleys vs face NAO feud. Great talkers on both sides and the NAO would have been the "underdogs" to the Heels.

One of the few teams that would have been able to promo alongside the NAO.

[Lock Jaw]

Damn. Crazy bumps by Mae Young. Never got to see these.

Well this is something they can actually do right now. Roadogg would have to hit the gym for a month, but the rest are in great shape.

If you think about it, the stars are currently aligned for it to happen. The Dudleys are done with TNA, and looking better than they ever have, Roadogg is already in the WWE, they are interested in bringing in Billy Gunn for another run, and HHH supposedly wants to buff the tag division.

If the dudleys are signed, and they bring Billy back, I don't see how this doesn't happen?

[dronepool]

The Dudley's will resurge the tag division. Nobody cares about most of the tag teams now.

I would even enjoy a one off.

Daniel Bryan and the Miz are complaining to AJ - she pulls the classic "Well tonight you are going to be in a tag match against mjystery opponents".

Dudleys show up and go over. Dunno.

[Saving Grace]

What would become of the TNA Television Championship?

it would make the "The List" and go around the waist of Big Robbie T and then 5 months later he would finally defend it and squash some X-Division wrestler in the lowest rated segment on Impact.
