The ECW legend believes that the current champion need not have a long run like his predecessor, Roman Reigns. According to Bubba, Rhodes’ story was about being an underdog. He fought through and overcame The Rock and The Tribal Chief at WrestleMania XL.

The Hall of Famer also added that he would not mind for The Final Boss to come back and dethrone The American Nightmare. He believes that if the Great One were to return to the WWE and stick around, he might as well do some business and become a credible challenger to the current WWE Champion.
