BJ Ray made his post-WWE return at WrestleCade 2025 — but it wasn’t his new look that got all the attention. It was a brutal bodyshot from none other than boxing legend Butterbean.
In a video BJ Ray posted to his Instagram, the former WWE LFG standout is seen backstage at the convention, hyped up and playfully challenging Butterbean’s identity in front of the camera. What started as a cheeky call-out turned into a gut-wrenching moment—literally.
“This guy’s trying to tell me you’re Butterbean. No, I know Butterbean and you ain’t Butterbean, bro. Prove it!”
That’s all it took. Without hesitation, Butterbean stepped up and drilled Ray with a vicious bodyshot, sending the reality TV-infused wrestler crashing to the floor in agony. The punch was so clean it echoed through the convention space—and Butterbean knew it.
“That proof? That’s about as much proof as you can get right there.”
The hilarious-yet-painful exchange instantly caught fire on social media, with fans praising the comedic timing, Butterbean’s still-deadly power, and Ray’s willingness to sell the moment like a champ.
This comes just days after BJ Ray teased a comeback look on Twitter by posting four selfies from his platinum blonde days, along with the caption:
“Might have to run the blonde back 😈”
Between the teased hair revival and now this viral WrestleCade bodyshot, BJ Ray isn’t just stepping back into the limelight—he’s making sure all eyes are on him, bruised ribs and all.
