WWE Hall Of Famer Condemns Booking Of Recent AEW Big Signings

AEW

A WWE Hall of Famer has condemned the booking of two recent AEW signings, saying he’s on the “same trajectory as everyone else.”

Bully Ray made the statement in the recent Busted Open Radio, looking at the arrival of Jay White and Roderick Strong.

On the episode, Bully Ray explained:

“Not enough people on that show last night are super over. There are people there that they don’t know whether they should cheer or boo, i.e. a Jay White.

“People want to love Jay White, but they’re booing him last night. He’s already a tweener, and he’s already in this same situation that most guys that get brought into AEW with lots of pomp and circumstances find themselves in.”

Bully Ray would note that White was Juice Robinson’s valent on the May 3 episode of AEW Dynamite, leaving him with the feeling that the former NJPW star just isn’t a “megastar.”

He would then focus on the arrival of Roderick Strong saying that the former WWE star wasn’t made to look like a star when he didn’t score the win for his team during his debut AEW match.

Bully Ray would go on to state:

“You can cut this anyway you want, Jay White and Roderick Strong are on the same trajectory as everyone else that comes into AEW. Little bit of fanfare, and then immediately cooled off.”

He would also conclude that both men were brought into the company in the same way – via a run-in on AEW Dynamite.
