"I'm not hard to find" - Bubba Ray Dudley breaks silence after attacking Ridge Holland at WWE show
Bubba Ray Dudley and Ridge Holland came to blows at the recently concluded WWE NXT Halloween Havoc Premium Live Event. Following the show, the Hall of Famer broke his silence about his actions on Sunday night.
Ridge Holland and Bubba Ray Dudley first had an interaction during the Countdown to NXT Halloween Havoc. Later in the night, Holland confronted the Hall of Famer after his Ambulance Match win against Andre Chase.
Bubba Ray, who was invited to the show by Shawn Michaels, had enough of the WWE star when he came out at the end of the night to attack Trick Williams. The veteran got into the ring and took shots at both Ethan Page and Ridge Holland before tossing them through the ropes.
Busted Open then shared a clip on X in which Bubba Ray Dudley commented on his actions. He stated that he needed to do something after Holland continued disrespecting the babyfaces in the game.
"Shawn Michaels came on Busted Open a week ago, and he was nice enough to invite us here to Halloween Havoc, to be a part of this, to give Busted Open even more of a platform than we have already. Put us on the pre-show, put us on the live show, basically, let us do whatever we wanted. Ridge Holland decided to make a name for himself at our expense tonight. I understand the first time, like 'Here’s an opportunity to get the world to see me if they didn’t know me.' They already know who Ridge Holland is. So he did what he had to do. I let that slide. The second time, too much. That’s our time," Bully Ray said.
The veteran went on to state that the crowd urged him to help the NXT Champion after Ridge Holland attacked him. He had no other option but to make the save, and told Holland that he was easy to find.
"Like I told him, you did it once, you did it twice, don’t ever let it happen again. End of the night, you saw what happened. Ridge decides to hit the ring, him and Ethan [Page] start ganging up on Trick. I could have swore that maybe Booker [T] or somebody at ringside, a couple guys from the back, I know it’s the end of the night, a lot of people went home, could have tried to at least help Trick. I got fans all around me saying, ‘Bubba, please help him out.’ What am I supposed to do? So yeah, tonight was enough, and you know how I feel about Trick. I thought Trick went out there and did a great job tonight, showed fighting spirit [and] got the win. Ridge, I’m not hard to find," Bubba Ray Dudley concluded. [H/T - Fightful]
WWE fans can expect the Hall of Famer to return for a match in the NXT ring soon, maybe as soon as the NXT show in Philadelphia at the 2300 Arena. It would be great to see him tag with Trick Williams for a match against Ridge Holland and Ethan Page.
Bubba Ray Dudley wasn't pleased with Ridge Holland at WWE NXT Halloween Havoc
The former member of Fight Night brought the beast out of himself at WWE NXT Halloween Havoc. Bubba Ray Dudley wasn’t ready to sit back and watch as Holland wreaked havoc on the show.
The ECW legend attacked Ridge Holland in the ring to a huge pop from fans. He then shouted at the WWE Superstar to send a clear message:
"That's twice. You did it in the preshow and I let it slide. Now you do it on the PLE. I'm telling you right now, don't let it happen again," said Bubba Ray Dudley.
Things are heating up very well for the WWE creative team to book a once-in-a-lifetime contest. Having Bubba Ray Dudley back in the ring would be a treat for many diehard fans of the WWE Hall of Famer.
