WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray (Bubba Ray Dudley) appeared on an episode of Busted Open Radio, where he talked about a number of topics including how he is very happy for AEW following the announcement of their new media rights deal.
Ray said, โCongratulations to AEW. [Iโm] very happy for them. Business is business. Thereโs business outside of the ring and thereโs business inside of the ring. And despite some of the flaws inside of the ring that we talk about on โBusted Openโ and here on โBusted Open After Dark,โ Tony [Khan] and AEW were able to secure themselves a new TV deal. We will be talking about them for years to come. Very happy for them. Like I said, canโt say enough good things. Thatโs really positive news. As a guy that worked for an up-and-coming company that struggled financially, ECW, I realize and understand how big of a step forward this is for AEW.โ
