Bubba told an older female that she taught her daughter how to suck dick, among other things. Anyways, the cable companies told Paul Heyman that the Dudleyz were banned from appearing on ECW ppv and they'd drop them if they did.
So the Dudleyz left for the WWF.

In a way, not surprised considering cable companies were very wary to begin with about carrying ECW stuff because of the promotion's rep.
Think Heyman made a few references or implied at how vulgar the Dudleys could get with the insults on the Rise & Fall of ECW dvd.
