On a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray discussed Dominik Mysterio and GUNTHER’s match from this week’s episode of WWE RAW, Paul Heyman’s WWE Hall of Fame induction, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On Dominik Mysterio: “Is there anybody getting more boos or generates heat more than Dominik? The kid has become an albatross to The Judgment Day. Gunther is being interviewed, he’s got a little smile on his face, talking about the credibility of his championship … I don’t hate Gunther.”
On his thoughts on GUNTHER: “It’s not like those stupid chops we see in the corner with everybody trying to bastardize the Japanese spot, like the Shotgun Chops in the corner. As much as I love Eddie Kingston, I hate that stupid Shotgun Chop in the corner stuff. It just does not look good.”
On wanting to see GUNTHER win a match with chops: “Gunther can beat you with a chop. Gunther’s chops look good, they sound good, people cringe when they hear a Gunther Chop. You can see the red marks it leaves on somebody’s chest. I would love to see somebody tap out to Gunther’s chops.”
On Heyman’s WWE Hall of Fame induction: “Congratulations to Paul. Extremely well-deserving nomination. Forget about ECW for a second. Let’s take ECW out of the equation because we all know what Paul was able to accomplish with ECW. Let’s just talk about Paul’s body of work as a performer. That alone puts him in the Hall of Fame.”
On the idea of Paul being inducted from the ECW Arena (aka the 2300 Arena: “Imagine if Paul was inducted into the Hall of Fame via live remote from the ECW Arena. I think that piece of nostalgia, people would’ve eaten up, they would’ve loved. But I do know that Paul likes to distance himself from ECW. Not because he’s not proud of what he did there, but that’s very much in his past.”
