EC-DUB! EC-DUB! EC-DUB! EC-DUB!
They have gotta do something about the Usos, man. Though I appreciated the laugh.

The best part was Bubba Ray slipping into his Bully persona. DO YOU KNOW WHO WE ARE. That's a character that could light a fire in the tag team division.
Looking into the future though, they might have a hard time keeping them heels when the crowd will still pop for the 3D and the tables.

About time they turned heel, hope Uso didn't hurt his knee I've been wanting this feud.

Not gonna lie, I marked out. Mean ass, table breaking Dudleys are the best Dudleys.

The biggest issue with the Dudleys is how incredibly stale and one-note they are, why not give them a total overhaul and see how that goes?

Bubba's best work is done as a heel. Pleased to know the Dudleys are going to play to their strengths.

The turn itself actually caught me off-guard, which seems rare for wrestling turns nowadays.

Dudleys have a perfectly good excuse. They came back and immediately got overshadowed. They lost out on the Slammys and people just treated them like nostalgia acts, tossing them aside for the returning Usos and New Day. I totally buy them losing it and reclaiming their role as dominant bully heels.

Hey, they were just giving the crowd what they wanted. And the crowd WAS chanting "We Want Tables!"

The biggest issue with the Dudleys is how incredibly stale and one-note they are, why not give them a total overhaul and see how that goes? I'd be inclined to agree, but there's two problems. Both of those things are so damn effective that it's been a big part of their success that they would need to justify that. In particular, very few people have ever kicked out of the 3D, so it would be stupid to stop doing it. The Wazzup headbutt should definitely go. The other problem is that WWE does this with so many acts where they drop everything good about them, and the last thing we need is the Tag Team Division's answer to AGGRESSIVE Alberto Del Rio.

I'd really like to see a Bubba Ray heel singles run. The best work of his career was his run as Bully Ray.

Great turn, well-needed surprise. Haven't had a good heel turn in a long time. Let the Dudleys put over the newer teams, as WWE is somewhat lacking in face teams.

I don't know, I think a team other than the Usos and they'd be fine. People are just sick of the Usos and no amount of heel work from Bubba will get them booed/the Usos cheered.

The Usos thing is kind of interesting. They were really treated like garbage in how they were called up as nothing more than filler opponents for the Harts since Carlito was an ass, and they very quickly all but stopped using them entirely, but then they just kind of found their hook and slowly won people over to where they eventually became very over and people were thrilled when they finally won the tag titles and the company fully embraced them as the faces of the tag division... then people just got sick of them, fast.

How many regular, face tag teams are there? Usos, Lucha Dragons (unless Kalisto is more focused on his US title at the moment), Prime Time Players (if they feel like reuniting again)

Usos, Lucha Dragons (unless Kalisto is more focused on his US title at the moment), Prime Time Players (if they feel like reuniting again) Enzo and Cass as well as the Hype Bros will be up sooner rather than later. An Enzo and Cass vs. Dudleys feud could be real interesting, IMO.

It was technically a double-turn, since Mark Henry turned on The New Day (he was a face at the start of the match and was getting along with the Unicorns-- then slipped back into WSM-mode and trash-talked them and abandoned them as a heel). Followed by the Dudleys' heel turn.
But that makes New Day faces since they got screwed by the Dudleys and Mark Henry (both heels) so it's a triple turn and New Day are now face-ish tweeners. And after their Grammy win two RAWs ago, how brazen and audacious of The Usos to try and steal one of the Dudleys' own trademark Table Match feuds! They went from a face team to heelish tweeners in my book, so it's an eight-man quadruple turn! Teddy Long would be proud!
