Bully Ray says The Death Riders “have not helped AEW in any way, shape or form”
While speaking on Busted Open Radio, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray stated the following in regards to the Death Riders faction in AEW…
“The Death Riders have not helped AEW in any way, shape, or form. The Death Riders are Jon Moxley playing out his pro wrestling fantasies because he’s got Tony [Khan’s] ear. Because he wants to be Terry Funk? I would kick the s**t out of Jon Moxley… I’d beat the living s**t out of him. Fraud.” (quote courtesy of Cultaholic.com)
Josh Barnett issued a response to the comments…
“Interesting take here ‘Bully’.
Mox can handle himself just fine, so he doesn’t need me to fight any battles for him, but if you ever have the itch to feel what it would be like to have your ass kicked so thoroughly to the point of epic humiliation, I can help you with that.
I can not only ‘beat the sh*t out of you’, but do so in a way as to make your ass kicking legendary.
For you, any time. Just ask.”
Marina Shafir of The Death Riders chimed in by writing to Barnett, “Me first coach, please.”
