Bully Ray Hopes AEW Doesn’t Execute Hard Brand Split

On the latest edition of “Busted Open Radio,” WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray expressed his hopes that AEW doesn’t execute a hard roster split between Collision and Dynamite.

While AEW seems to have some sort of soft brand split between the two shows, it remains to be seen what AEW President Tony Khan has in store for fans in the near future.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

On the WWE Draft: “As far as the draft in WWE, it’s a farce. I’ve been telling Dave [LaGreca] since day one that it’s programming for the sake of programming. It takes two shows to do. They’re never going to stick to a draft. They have no reason to stick to the draft. The draft is for everybody on the mid-card and below, that’s who the draft is for. Not the stars, not the main eventers.

On AEW’s roster: “When it comes to AEW, I really hope that they don’t stick to a ‘Dynamite’ roster and a ‘Collision’ roster. I think that will affect their Saturday nights severely. And if they do, I’m under the impression that we’ll never really get Punk face to face with a ‘Hangman,’ or with a Matt and Nick [Jackson], or with a Kenny [Omega], which I think is what everybody wants to see. This s**t writes itself. It’s right there in front of them. You know damn well that if this was ECW, and ECW had that Saturday night spot, and any two people had the animosity that Punk had with any of those four other guys, that would have been a face-to-face in the middle of a ring.”
