The Dudley Boyz are easily the most decorated tag team in the history of WWE, winning the titles a record nine times with a total of 24 reigns throughout their careers. They returned to the WWE after a 10-year absence at the Monday Night Raw after SummerSlam last year and it looks like they will be leaving on tonight’s episode.
Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley both took to Twitter on Monday and possibly teased a departure from the company or a retirement from professional wrestling in general.
Either way, it doesn’t seem like the WWE Universe will be seeing the brothers after tonight.
One year ago we came back to the @WWE and to the @WWEUniverse . now it's time to say goodbye tonight on raw …

The Dudley Boyz have worked together as a tag team for the past two decades, cutting their teeth in the Philadelphia-based promotion Extreme Championship Wrestling, where they won the tag titles eight separate times. They made their way to WWE in 1999 and won the titles nine times in the span of six years and having magical feuds with the likes of Edge and Christian and the Hardy Boys.
This could be just a ploy to begin a split between the two team members, which has been rumored since earlier this year. It will be interesting to see what actually happens when the Dudley Boyz hit the ring tonight.
