Duke Hudsons cryptic exit from WWE has sparked plenty of reactions, but one of the most unexpected came from TNA star Steph De Lander. After Hudson dropped his Wrestling with Identity video, De Lander didnt hold back, making it clear she doesnt want him anywhere near TNA.
Quote-tweeting Hudsons video, De Lander wrote, Pls for the love of god stay far away from @ThisIsTNA !!!
Its unclear if her comment was meant as a serious warning or just playful banter, but it definitely got people talking.
Hudson, who was quietly released by WWE back in January, has been making headlines ever since confirming the news in his self-interview video. In the clip, he had a brutally honest conversation with himself about his time in WWE, admitting his frustrations but refusing to call his run a failure.
Alright, well lets get straight to the point. Youve been fired, which might be breaking news to a lot of the people here, Hudson said to his other self. You werent part of a group with a budget cuts, right, so this really was more of a we hate you. His other self quickly responded, Yeah.
Hudson reflected on how his peers, including Rhea Ripley and Bron Breakker, have surpassed him in WWE, but remained focused on whats next. I can be happy for my friends and be disappointed in my own shortcomings at the same time, he said.
With his WWE chapter officially closed, Hudson hasnt revealed his next move, but if De Lander has her way, it wont be in TNA. Whether her reaction was personal or just playing into the drama, its definitely got people wondering whats next for Hudson.
Should Duke Hudson land in TNA, or does his next chapter belong elsewhere? Let us know in the comments.
