Bully Ray, better known to WWE fans as ‘Bubba Ray Dudley’ gave out a few mean words for the 25-year-old rising WWE LFG star, Haze Jameson, after her elimination during the September 14 episode of the show.

Ray decided to be blunt in his approach to provide Jameson with the disheartening update of her elimination. He used just three words:

“You’re going home” (via EslamRollins on X).

However, Ray also provided Jameson with a moment to cheer for after his unfiltered revelation of the “bad news” for her.

WWE LFG is currently in its second season.

It started with 13 contestants competing for a WWE NXT contract under the mentorship of the noted WWE icons: The Undertaker, Michelle McCool, Booker T, Shawn Michaels, and Ray.

The show features several repeat participants, but Jameson was one of the fresh faces who garnered a lot of eyeballs after an incredible showdown with Dani Selesky a couple of weeks ago.

However, Ray’s disciple lost her first match of the season against Sirena Linton, despite putting her heart and soul into it. Jameson was left hobbling on one leg after her match against Linton.

The show had its first elimination session during the September 14 episode, where every mentor was required to oust a participant from their team.

Ray put Zena Sterling and Jameson in the bottom quartile of his team, meaning the episode would end with the elimination of any one of them.

Unfortunately, Jameson had to leave after Ray bluntly informed her that she was “going home.” However, the WWE veteran also brought a smile to the 25-year-old’s face with some “good news” shortly after informing her about her elimination. He said:

“You want the good news? I would love to go do a shot of tequila with you.”

Jameson viewed her mentor’s offer as a “win,” saying:

“Alright, let’s fu*king go! That’s a win.”

But while Jameson got “good news” even after getting eliminated, Ray’s approach turned even harsher for Sterling, whom he decided to retain in his team.

Unlike Jameson, Zena Sterling is a repeat participant in this season of LFG, having also contested the show’s first season.

Additionally, Sterling’s in-ring performances in the first season portrayed her as a strong contender to win the title.

Sterling made it to the finals of the first season but couldn’t win the contest, as she endured a defeat against Tyler Mae Steele in the finals.

Sterling may have won both of her matches this season (against P-Nasty and Sirena Linton).

Still, her unsatisfactory performances caused Ray to put her in the elimination zone with Jameson.

The 54-year-old may have retained Sterling at the cost of Jameson, but he subjected Sterling to a few harsh remarks, including calling her LFG 2 performance “stale.” Ray also gave Sterling a couple of stern warnings during his conversation with her and Jameson.

Ray advised her to do “something” to improve the quality of her performances and asked her to stay dedicated to her cause of “win”-ing.

“I still believe in you, and I hope you still believe in yourself.

You need to do something, and you need to do something now… Do what you set out to do: Win.”
