WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray, also known as Bubba Ray Dudley, recently appeared on Busted Open Radio to discuss various topics. He talked about how several AEW stars have their own locker rooms, expressing the opinion that the only one who truly deserves this is Chris Jericho. Ray also mentioned that having separate locker rooms for certain stars can lead to jealousy among the rest of the roster.
Ray said, “One of the things that goes on in AEW that I don’t necessarily agree with, except for…maybe one person, maybe one, I’m not a fan of the everybody getting their own locker room. I think it breeds jealousy, I think it leaves a bad taste in wrestler’s mouths. Not a fan of it. Listen, you want to get your own tour bus? That’s one thing. But when you need your own dressing room? Listen, if you want to get to an arena and find a locker room that’s more empty than the others and take that locker room? Okay, that’s fine. Hey, if you can find a broom closet, and you want to change by yourself? That’s fine. I have a problem with all of these people [that are like] ‘I need my own locker room. I need my own locker room.’ All you’re telling the boys is ‘I’m better than you. I deserve my own [locker room].’ You want to tell me Chris Jericho? I can deal with that. I can understand why Chris Jericho [gets one], because Chris Jericho was one of the first guys there. And Chris Jericho is the biggest worldwide superstar in the company. There is no bigger star in AEW than Chris Jericho. It would be impossible, because Chris Jericho worked for the WWE, Chris Jericho worked for New Japan. Chris Jericho is a name all of the planet, whether it’s wrestling, whether it’s rock and roll band. I understand why Chris Jericho would have his own locker room.”
