10 Underutilised WWE Stars Who Would Excel In Lucha Underground
5. Bubba Ray Dudley
Bubba Ray Dudley seemed incredibly excited to be back in WWE. He was lobbying hard on Twitter for months before it finally came to fruition. His dream came true, and he’d get to ride out the rest of his wrestling days as a national star.
Things haven't gone quite to plan.
From a character standpoint Bubba did the best work of his career in the last chapters of his TNA run as Bully Ray. That character would have been great in WWE, feuding with top babyfaces like John Cena and Roman Reigns. But management wasn't interested. They wanted a Dudley Boyz reunion instead. They’re basically mid-card tag team fodder at the moment, which is a bit of a waste.
In Lucha, Ray would likely be much closer to his Bully character. Overall, their roster is filled with smaller competitors, which would be perfect for Ray to push around and beat up. His mic skills are vastly underutilized in WWE, and it would be interesting to see what Lucha would do with him by introducing him once more to an ECW-like environment.
