The Dudley Boyz are one of the most iconic WWE tag teams of all time, and D-Von Dudley and Bubba Ray Dudley have held championships in just about every major promotion imaginable. Their final run in WWE wasn't the greatest, and both men went their separate ways in 2016 when D-Von chose to say with WWE to become a producer and Bubba joining Ring of Honor and Sirius XM.
Unfortunately, it doesn't sound like they parted on good terms because D-Von was happy to continue putting over younger talent; Bubba, on the other hand, wasn't pleased with the booking decisions being made and hoped to bring his Bully Ray character into the company (something he's talked about in the past, admitting that Vince McMahon wasn't overly sold on the idea).
"They gave us both the contract. I signed it. He didn’t want to sign it and it left a bad taste in their mouth," D-Von recalled. "I wish him nothing but the best. We do not do business anymore. There’s no hard feelings and I don’t have any animosity towards him. It’s just he’s doing his thing and I’m doing my thing. Bubba and I are not at odds with each other. We don’t hate one another."
"We just went different ways like most tag teams do. This is not a Marty Jannetty and Shawn Michaels thing where we hate each other. We don’t. We just had a difference of opinions at that time and we went our separate ways."
We're glad to hear they're on somewhat good terms, but it's hard to say whether they'll be sending each other a Christmas card this year. D-Von later noted that they used to run a wrestling school together but now have their own separate companies, so we're not banking on a reunion.
