5. Bubba Ray Dudley

Bubba Ray Dudley is fine in his current role as one half of the most decorated tag team in modern wrestling history, but if you’ve only ever seen him in WWE, chances are you’ve missed his best singles work.

As TNA’s Bully Ray, Bubba put-in some of the very best work of his career. A great brawler and talker, he elevated himself to a legitimate World Title-calibre wrestler during a run that frequently had him listed among the industry’s top heels. Sometimes, all you need is a good gimmick and the ability to hold an audience in the palm of your hand; Bully Ray was living proof of that.

The fact that none of this happened in WWE means it’ll largely go unnoticed. With The Dudley Boyz currently stuck at the bottom of WWE’s tag division, perhaps it’s time to resurrect some of those Bully Ray characteristics and send Bubba out on his own.
