Meaning of ってえ in「「いじめ」がどうしたってぇ」

Question

From Yugioh chapter 1,

お前ら「いじめ」がどうしたってぇ

I think it means something like "What did you say about bully?" I am not sure about the どうしたってぇ part, especially ってぇ.

oh wow is this ygo s0? or ygo duel monsters? – BCLC Jul 11 '22 at 11:51 — BCLC, Jul 11 '22 at 11:51
@BCLC I think it's S0 on the first part – Jimmy Yang Jul 11 '22 at 17:02 — Jimmy Yang, Jul 11 '22 at 17:02

You are right, the って is the same as っていう as a colloquial version of という.

Just like this question, どうしたって is a version of どうしたというのか. So the sentence is literally like Hey you, what about "bullying"?

The last ぇ simply expresses that て is pronounced with prolonged vowel.
