The Dudley Boyz are a legendary tag team in professional wrestling, especially WWE, where theyve captured nine tag titles together (with a 10th reign just eluding them). You would think if you were trying to elevate (or rehabilitate) a team by having them defeat a team like the Dudleys, youd make Bubba Ray and D-Von out to be every bit the tough competitors that they are, right? But in two encounters between the Dudleys and the Wyatt Family, the Wyatts have left Bubba Ray and D-Von laying in the ring, the last time on Smackdown with the Wyatts putting Bubba Ray through a table (the Dudleys calling card). This looks like it could be leading to a tables match at TLC (how appropriate), but the Dudleys have looked like the JOB Squad rather than 9-time WWE tag team champs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkIsj2NXFq8 So youve got to imagine that Bubba Ray and D-Von will get the upper hand on Raw Monday night. It would only make sense to build a little parity rather than just have them be whipping boys once again.
Scott is a former journalist and longtime wrestling fan who was smart enough to abandon WCW during the Monday Night Wars the same time as the Radicalz. He fortunately became a fan in time for WrestleMania III and came back as a fan after a long high school hiatus before WM XIV. Monday nights in the Carlson household are reserved for viewing Raw -- for better or worse.
