WWE HOFer Slams AEW Over Penta El Zero's Utilization After Wrestler Solid Debit In RAW

WWE Hall of Famer Bubba Ray Dudley goes gaga on Penta's debut at RAW on Netflix. He criticized the AEW, and its boss Tony Khan for underutilizing Penta, who recently had a top-tier debut on the WWE's red brand against Chad Gable. He also gave a key insight into the luchador's debut on Monday Night RAW and slammed AEW as they had no idea on how to hire talent to win them over.

“I would have cut the match down a little bit and kept the same psychology and the same things that they did as far as, yes, we’re used to seeing Penta wrestle spotfest matches in AEW with little to no psychology and or selling whatsoever. You ain’t doing that in the world of the WWE. You’ll get to work a WWE-esque Luchador style, which is what we saw. There was selling, there was psychology.

“It’s the WWE. It’s where you truly learn how to work and become a millionaire, not just because some guy with a lot of money threw millions at you because he wanted another action figure to play with. It’s because you earned the right to make these millions through your art and your work and your performance,” Bubba Ray Dudley said in the recent episode of the Busted Open Radio.
