On his Bully Ray gimmick

He stated that he has played that character for a long time and would not be difficult to recreate it again.

"I would be more than happy to go down that road since I know I’ve done it in the past & I know I’ve done it in the past well. So I definitely think it could work.”

On the New Day

Bubba said that the biggest thing today in the WWE business in entertainment. He added the WWE want people who are entertaining. The New Day have been very entertaining and the most important thing is the fans cheering or booing them for being entertaining, that's what counts.

Bubba also said that he is a bit old school but the entertainment factor is what is working out for them.

"So if you’re entertaining and the people hate you that’s fine. And if you’re entertaining and the people love you that’s fine – as long as you’re entertaining.”
