Looking Back at the Memorable Run of Team 3D in TNA

In the world of professional wrestling, few tag teams have left as significant a mark as the Dudley Boys. Renowned for their dominance in the ring and their unparalleled ability to captivate audiences, the Dudley Boys, also known as Team 3D, made a monumental impact during their tenure in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA).

When the Dudley Boys made their debut in TNA in 2005, it was a game-changer for the promotion. Coming off a storied career in other wrestling organizations, including WWE and ECW, the team of Bubba Ray Dudley (also known as Bully Ray) and D-Von Dudley brought with them a wealth of experience and a reputation for excellence.

From the moment they stepped foot in the Impact Zone, the Dudley Boys asserted their dominance in the tag team division. Their blend of power, athleticism, and sheer intimidation made them formidable opponents for any team brave enough to step into the ring with them. They captured the TNA World Tag Team Championships multiple times, solidifying their status as one of the greatest tag teams in TNA history.

Beyond their in-ring success, the Dudley Boys played a crucial role in elevating the competition in TNA. Their presence brought a level of credibility and prestige to the tag team division, inspiring other teams to step up their game and compete at a higher level. Through their intense rivalries and unforgettable matches, they helped raise the overall standard of tag team wrestling in TNA.

The Dudley Boys' influence extended far beyond the confines of TNA. Their legacy as one of the most iconic tag teams in wrestling history made them ambassadors for the sport, garnering respect and admiration from fans and fellow wrestlers alike. Their contributions to the industry helped shape the landscape of professional wrestling and cemented their place in its storied history.

Even as their careers progressed, the Dudleys continued to make an impact in TNA and beyond. Whether as dominant in-ring competitors, compelling personalities on the microphone, or mentors to younger talent, they remained relevant and respected throughout their tenure in the promotion. You would see them break apart and come back together as part of Aces and Eight's after enjoying singles runs.

In summary, Team 3D left an indelible mark on TNA during their time with the promotion. Through their unparalleled skill, intense rivalries, and undeniable charisma, they elevated the tag team division to new heights and solidified their place as wrestling legends. Their contributions to TNA and the industry as a whole will be remembered and celebrated by wrestling fans for generations to come.

Book This Episode 1: The Summer of Punk Rebooked Prelude

Let’s go back to 2011, specifically June of 2011. CM Punk’s contract is expiring soon and he’s getting ready to have the biggest run of his career. On June 27th, 2011 CM Punk would cut a promo that would have the wrestling world buzzing for years to come. In his promo, Punk said that his contract expired next month and that he, the Number One Contender, would be leaving WWE with the WWE Championship. He’d also go onto take shots at not only his opponent the following month, John Cena but other icons in the history of WWE. Whether employed by the company or not. He’d also tease defending his WWE Championship in Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling. Essentially he’d be a travelling World Champion, ala the territory days. Well, CM Punk did win the WWE Championship the next month from John Cena at Money in the Bank. However, what would happen after would disappoint wrestling fans more than anything else that’s happened in years. How they bungled this storyline, I’m not ent

The State of Professional Wrestling - 11-29-21

I have a lot of thoughts on the state of professional wrestling in 2021. I think it’s great that AEW is around now and that they’re presenting a great product. I think WWE has the potential not be really boring but I think the consensus is that most of the time it’s just a really boring show. I cannot tell you the last time I sat through a 3 hour Raw. Oh wait, yes I can. September, 9th, 2013 and that’s only because I was at the damn show. WWE has a problem with stagnation. The product continually feels the same and I think there’s an obvious reason for that. WWE is too scripted. I think there’s a noticeable difference in the presentation between WWE and AEW. AEW feels like a legitimate sports show and WWE feels like broadway theatre without the music. I don’t think it’s a problem with the talent. When you go top-down, guys like Roman Reigns, Big E, Brock Lesnar, Edge, Bobby Lashley, Randy Orton, Rey Mysterio, Finn Balor, Jeff Hardy and Kevin Owens are all main event players.
