NEWARK, N.J. — The Dudley Boyz visited “Big Cass Country” on WWE’s Extreme Rules Kickoff, showing the veteran tag team that the New Era has arrived in WWE and they shouldn’t be messed with.
While insulting the WWE Universe in New Jersey, The Dudleys explained that they’ve been in more Extreme Rules Matches than everyone on the roster combined.
“The Dudley Boys were responsible for killing off ECW. When we left ECW, ECW went straight into the toilet, and straight into the toilet is where the careers of most of these New Era Superstars is going,” Bubba Ray said.

D-Von claimed they wouldn’t be competing in Extreme Rules because they’re “above Extreme” and they vowed to get out of “stinkin’ New Jersey.” By then, Big Cass had heard enough. The 7-footer came down to the ring and was ready for a fight.
“I know why you won’t say ‘D-Von, get the tables,’ and that’s because you ate the damn table and everything on it!” Big Cass told The Dudleys. “You two are extremely wrong about the athletes of the New Era, because we will prove tonight that we do exactly what you used to do in your bingo halls and your ballrooms, and we do it better in front of millions of people every damn week.”
Despite being outnumbered, Big Cass took down The Dudleys, hitting Bubba Ray with a big boot and D-Von with the East River Crossing before saying, “Dudley Boyz, there’s only one word to describe you and I’m going to spell it out for you: S-A-W-F-T.”
This isn’t Cass’ first time making The Dudley Boyz look S-A-W-F-T. On the May 16 edition of Raw, the Queens, N.Y., native gave Bubba Ray a big boot off the ring apron, then hit D-Von with the East River Crossing for the win. Then on SmackDown, Cass helped his tag team earn a victory when he gave Bubba Ray another big boot and the Empire Elbow for his second victory in one week.
