Bully Ray Weighs In On The Recent CM Punk vs. Samoa Joe Match On AEW Collision

On a recent edition of “Busted Open Radio,” Bully Ray lavished praise on the CM Punk vs. Samoa Joe matchup that took place on last week’s episode of AEW Collision.

Punk and Joe wrestled each other in a singles contest for the first time in 18 years, and the former AEW World Champion defeated the ROH TV Champion in the semifinals of the Owen Hart Cup.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

On a moment during the break when CM Punk is hurt outside the ring and Joe breaks the 10-count: “That, to many people, would mean absolutely nothing. I saw that, and I was like, ‘That is the way you do it.’ That is good offense countered by good defense, and Punk was going to go hit an offensive maneuver, and then one chop from Joe — not 900 chops from somebody, not this bull**** spirit of the fight … ‘I chop you, you chop me.’ Nobody registers, nobody sells, and we stand there until people start chanting, ‘This is awesome’ and it gets you absolutely nowhere.”

On why it was a great matchup: “Two warriors, from 25 years ago, who cut their teeth in Ring of Honor — now standing there in [an] AEW [ring]. So much was done in that match.”
