WWE Hall of Famer D-Von Dudley appeared on Mavenโ€™s YouTube video to discuss several topics, including how rampant racism was in wrestling in the 1970s and 1980s.

Dudley said, โ€œIn the 70s and 80s, [prejudice] was running rampant, and you saw it, storyline-wise, promos, the way some of these wrestlers were cutting them. Now, today, I donโ€™t know. I donโ€™t particularly know, because, again, some people are upset because theyโ€™re not getting the push or what have you. Other people, maybe theyโ€™re not just that good. I donโ€™t know.โ€
