Velvet Sky had some thoughts on her boyfriend’s creative direction in WWE.
Sky tweeted the following about Bubba Ray Dudley's character, saying why his TNA character Bully Ray wasn’t used in the company.
The Bully Ray character is #NotPG. It wouldn't work there. Watered down Bully Ray = No. https://t.co/ngtBPRQDfy

The Dudley Boyz made their final appearance on WWE programming on the August 22 edition of Raw. On that episode, the first Raw after SummerSlam, the Dudleys announced their departure from WWE. During their sendoff / farewell segment, the former WWE, WWF and WCW tag team champions were interrupted by Primo and Epico of The Shining Stars. The Dudleys were about to put the Shining Stars through a table with a 3D, but were stopped by Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson of The Club.
The Dudley Boyz were drafted 42nd overall in ninth round by Raw in the WWE Draft held July 19.
The famed tag team might be retired from WWE, but they are not retired from in ring competition. It was announced Sunday that Team 3D would compete at Insane Championship Wrestling’s Fear & Loathing IX. The tag team will vie for the Undisputed Tag Team Championships at the event, which will be held on November 20.
