Devon Hughes[5] (/ˈdiːvɒn/ DEE-von; born August 1, 1972)[6] is an American retired professional wrestler. He is signed to WWE, under a legends contract. He is best known for performing in Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) from 1995 to 1999 and for the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) eventually renamed to World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) as an in-ring competitor from 1999 to 2005 and from 2015 to 2016 as D-Von Dudley and Reverend D-Von. He also performed with Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) from 2005 to 2014 as Brother Devon and Devon.
Hughes is an accomplished tag-team wrestler, notably achieving a majority of his success with Mark LoMonaco (best known as Bubba Ray Dudley, Brother Ray and Bully Ray) as part of the Dudley Boyz (known as Team 3D in TNA), with the team characterized by their unorthodox ring attire, hard-hitting style and usage of tables in their matches. He is recognized by TNA as a 23-time world tag-team champion, and became part of the first tag team inducted into the TNA Hall of Fame. They are considered one of the major teams that revived tag-team wrestling during the Attitude Era.[7] Including his two TNA Television Championship reigns, Hughes has held 25 major championships between ECW, WWE, TNA and New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW). Hughes and LoMonaco were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2018 as part of the Dudley Boyz.
