10 WWE Superstars Who Were Probably Scientologists
6. Reverend Devon - WWE, 2002
Character wise, it was never specified to what church D-Von was testifying to as a member of the Dudley Boyz for six years between ECW and WWE. As well, if one were to truly take in the Dudleys as a family, it could definitely be stated that the Dudley creation myth revolving around Papa Dudley being a "rolling stone" of sorts could easily be a cover up of something more intriguing. Thus, by the initial brand draft in 2002, D-Von and Bubba being split up could easily finally give D-Von the space away from his "family" to embrace his Scientological roots. Of course, without Bubba, Spike, Big Dick, Dances With, Sign Guy and Joel Gertner around to assist him in spreading his message of auditing souls, he failed. However, Dave Batista is a great choice if choosing someone to carry out the soul auditing process, as I'd imagine that 2002 Batista could scare even the mightiest memory from a human soul.
