During a recent edition of Busted Open Radio, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray, heavily critiqued the AEW product, and the currently ongoing storyline between Will Ospreay, Jon Moxley, and the Death Rider. Ospreay has recently found common footing with Moxley and the Death Riders, who have become his training partners.

Bully Ray likened the AEW product to Groundhog Day, saying it doesn’t make sense. Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com)

Bully Ray on Wanting To See Will Ospreay and the Death Riders’ Angle Acknowledge Their Past Feud

“I would love to see Moxley and Will Ospreay in a situation where they’re having one of their conversations, where Moxley is trying to make Will see the light at the end of the tunnel, or help Will out, or whatever it is that Moxley and the Death Riders are trying to do for Will, and then I’d like to see the Death Riders leave, and I’d like to see Will look at Moxley and go ‘Wow, I never thought we’d be in this spot right now, you know, considering just, a year ago, you tried to break my neck,’ and walk away. I want Will Ospreay to acknowledge that he remembers these guys tried to do something bad to him, as opposed to ‘Oh, its okay. I’ll forget about it, I’m going to put it past me.’ There is no response, because it doesn’t make f*****g sense!”

On How AEW Is Like Groundhog Day

“It’s Groundhog Day with AEW. It’s been Groundhog Day with AEW for a long time. There’s…and **** not making sense is why they are behind on ticket sales for All In, considerably behind on ticket sales for All In, in a building that they did 80K in and 40K in respectively. Why do numbers go…why are the numbers going down? Maybe it’s disinterest because things just don’t make sense.”

As previously reported, Bully Ray also recently harshly criticized Moxley, saying, “I’d beat the living **** out of him. Fraud.”
