Bubba Ray Dudley appeared on a recent edition of Busted Open Radio. During the interview, he spoke about Braun Strowman’s Greatest Royal Rumble win and more. You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On Strowman’s win at Friday’s Saudi Arabia event: “What a great experimental picture to paint. There was no prize for the [Greatest] Royal Rumble victory, but they made up this belt, and Braun holding the belt over his head, with the people popping, that was a hell of a picture, right? What a great experiment — well, let’s see how he looks with the championship belt over his head with the people— and it really worked. [Jim Ross] recently did an interview where I believe he said Braun could be or would be the face of WWE. I know that’s a discussion we’ve had, whether or not he could be the face—I don’t mean babyface, I mean the ‘face’ ala John Cena or a Hulk Hogan—face of the company. They are obviously on the right track with Braun.”
On comparing Braun Strowman & Daniel Bryan: “In a weird way, Braun is the next Daniel Bryan, because he got over very organically, right? It’s what the people want. I can definitely see them—after seeing the Jedda match and seeing how things didn’t exactly go great with Roman, and we’ve given them a chance after chance after chance, and obviously this is not a knock on Roman [Reigns] as a person or a wrestler— it’s just not working. But it really is working for Braun, and I think that they will run with him.”
