Bully Ray is keeping a close watch on Izzi Dame, and he has some concerns about the direction of her WWE NXT run.
Speaking on Busted Open After Dark, the veteran expressed his worry after Dame came up short in her latest outing, questioning why she hasn’t been given a bigger spotlight. Layla Diggs defeated Thea Hail, Lizzy Rain and Izzi Dame to become number one contender for the NXT Women’s North American Championship on this week’s NXT.
“I’m a little concerned with Izzi Dame. I don’t know why Izzi Dame is not being featured more,” Bully said. “She was being featured for a while, but they’ve kind of had her in the Speed division. She didn’t win tonight. I wonder what’s going on with Izzi.”
Despite his concern, Bully made it clear that he is a big believer in Dame’s potential, praising the full package she brings to the table. “Uncle Bully has been keeping an eye on Izzi, and he likes what he sees. It factor, airport test, work, statuesque, whole nine,” he said.
For Bully, Dame is someone who should already be further along, though he acknowledged WWE may have a plan in place.
“I thought Izzi would have been someone they hit the gas on a little bit more. Maybe they’re cooling her off because they plan on doing it,” Bully said. “But I think the girl has earned more of the meat of the push.”
