As one-half of The Hardy Boyz, a legendary tag team in the wrestling industry, Hardy questioned why they haven’t been given more prominent storylines and opportunities. Bully Ray, also known as Bubba Ray Dudley, understands Hardy’s concerns and believes it’s valid for him to express his frustrations.
“If I’m Matt Hardy, and I’m one-half of the Hardy Boyz, one of the greatest tag teams still walking the planet and a tag team that will go down in history, I am definitely wondering to myself, ‘Why are we being used the way we’re being used?'” Bully Ray said on the podcast.
It’s important to note that Bully Ray does not see anything wrong with Hardy voicing his opinions on his own podcast. In the world of professional wrestling, performers often have limited control over their characters and storylines. Therefore, it’s understandable for wrestlers to express their frustrations and desires for better opportunities.
