Bubba Ray Explains The Creative Change That He Would Make To Smackdown Live When It Moves To FOX

Smackdown Live will be officially moving over to FOX in October. Many fans are curious as to what changes WWE will be making when the show switches Networks.

On a recent edition of Busted Open Radio, Bubba Ray Dudley explained the creative change that he would make to the blue brand when it moves over.

Here is what he said (h/t to Cageside Seats for the quotes below):

“From a creative point you know what I would do? Right out of the gate I’d hand Paul Heyman the pencil and say ‘go get them.’ Because he’s probably the only proven one when it comes to making SmackDown special.”

Bubba continued:

“If there is one person out there that has a track record of making SmackDown successful and a definitively better show than Raw it was Paul Heyman in probably what 2003? 2004? So we know he can get the job done. We know he’s there. I would put the pencil in his hand and say ‘hey what can you do with this?’. I think his creativity with that show and the way he knows how to use characters and gel them with storylines would work.”

Do you agree or disagree with him? Let me know in the comment section.
