#3 Bubba Ray Dudley

A key part of WWE’s Tag Division in the Attitude Era, Bubba Ray Dudley had plenty of success with his brother D-Von.

Despite a brief singles run in 2002, the company never had faith in Bubba’s abilities as a solo star, and quickly reunited him with D-Von.

After a few more years as the Dudley Boyz, in 2005 Bubba parted ways with the company, joining Impact Wrestling that same year.

As a part of the company, Bubba proved himself as a guy who could carry the company, where his face run as a singles star got over with fans, before he transitioned to being the loud-mouthed heel, World Champion and leader of the Aces and Eights.

His run with the biker gang is probably his finest work, and it’s a shame that he lacked a WWE sized audience for it.

A testament to his abilities, when the Dudleyz returned for a nostalgia trip in 2015, the WWE Universe quickly hoped for Bubba to turn on his brother, and carry on his singles success from TNA.

He now works as a veteran for ROH, describing himself as the last true heel in wrestling, and has demonstrated that he could still have value as a WWE performer in 2018.
