On a recent episode of “Busted Open Radio”, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray gave his insights about AEW WrestleDream 2024. He expressed his view of Darby Allin as the flagship “superhero” of Tony Khan’s wrestling promotion.
Here are some key takeaways from the podcast:
About Darby Allin: Bully Ray commented, “As of right now, based on everything that I saw at the close of WrestleDream — I picture Darby Allin as my superhero… Darby was presented to be the hero.”
About Bryan Danielson’s future after WrestleDream: Bully Ray said, “You won’t witness his ultimate goodbye tomorrow [on AEW Dynamite]… It will happen once he’s recuperated and ready to return.”
Mercedes Mone, in her recent “Mone Mag” bulletin, shared her thoughts on her match with Emi Sakura on AEW Dynamite’s previous week’s episode. She expressed how Sakura, a person she looked up to in her adolescence, inspired her.
Mone disclosed that travel hindrances and other obligations gave her minimal time to gear up for their match. However, she still labeled their matchup as “epic.”
Expressing her excitement, the TBS Champion stated, “Emi is a Japanese icon and a legendary figure who’s been part of the wrestling world for three decades! She’s a legend I’ve respected and have been watching since I was 13! For Mercedes Varnado, who’s personally a fan of the sport, I’m exhilarated. This is going to be an uncommon instance where I’m contending against a veteran with far more experience than me. It’s astonishing to realize this is only the third opportunity in my career to face someone of this stature. There have only been a couple of other instances in my career where I’ve competed with women with more professional wrestling experience than me.”
