Bully Ray reacts to Shanky's dancing gimmick

Following Shanky's new dancer persona on SmackDown, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray expressed his thoughts on the new gimmick.

Stemming from last week's episode, Shanky caused problems during his tag team match against Los Lotharios due to his dancing which resulted in their loss. Shanky aided Jinder Mahal's win during his bout against Humberto during tonight's show to make up for his teammate.

One-half of The Dudley Boyz took to social media to express his amusement for the Indian. He joked that dancing and acting like a fool wouldn't get him over and even included a GIF of him dancing.

After the match concluded, the 30-years-old danced with Samantha Irvin outside the ring after his failed attempts to make Jinder dance with him.

It seems like Bubba wasn't the only Hall of Famer who was tuning in on tonight's episode. WWE Hall of Famer, Road Dogg, quickly replied to his former opponent and stated dancing like him (Bully Ray) won't get anybody over.

In addition, former WWE Superstar Hurricane Helms also joined in on the fun and replied with his own GIF dance.

Dancing gimmicks are not new for WWE Superstars. In the past, they were able to produce the likes of Brodus Clay (Tyrus) and Fandango, who became quite over to the fans during his run. For now, it seems like the Skyscraper's new gimmick is helping him gain attention from fans and legends alike.
