Happy for you that you tube gave you your channel back . Bad situation to be in . Great work . Peace from France ; )
Chris all I gotta say is..... Wasssssssup!!?!?!?
Quick note on Nord: I’ve been using them for many years now and they are absolutely awesome.
Really good audio and video recording for a phone
Cvv get the tables
A lot of people can't stand Bully Ray, but he has always been one of my favorites. Their is a big reason for that, and that is because he reminds me of my dad. I lost my dad when I was 17, and I have never gotten over it. It's just his demeanor and the way he carries himself that reminds me of my dad. Miss you dad!!!
I used to hate Bully Ray, but damn do I love his interviews with CVV.
I've grown to love his honesty and greatly respect his insight nowadays.
We should gives The Dudley Boyz/Team 3D, EnC (Edge & Christen) and the Hardys more flowers for their greatness
They literally carried the tag team division. They fought every week and you never got tired of it.
They get enough
Why would they want flowers? Lmfao
I just literally sent those flowers
When were they ever referred to as EnC?... wrestling fans are dumb
I LOVE whenever you interview Bully. His insight on wrestling is beyond valuable. I could listen to you two talk for hours!
100% agree.
Thanks my friend!
this is the student of Paul Heyman ~ when you shut off your screen and just hear Bully Ray talk on a mic ~ it has Paul Heyman stamp all over it and he is a perfectionist when it comes to storytelling in his whatever feuds as well ~ something that Edge also has because they are from that "best era" of pro wrestling .... those video gaming + nerd culture is what hurting the business sadly.... much
Yeah.. Bully Ray's analysis on wrestling is the best IMO.
Listen to busted open
I can listen to Bully talk about the business all day long and not get tired of it. The passion he has for the business just drips in everything he says.
Bully can definitely be the next Paul Heyman and work with younger talent when he decides to hang’em up. I have a lot of respect for Bully and what he has done and what he continues to do. He was a huge part of my childhood
Totally agree. I actually said that a few weeks ago to someone that Bubba Ray was the next Paul Heyman.
bully as his on wrestling school in Danbury. ct.
Bubba ray and D Von one of the best tag team champions in WWF WWE history... Also when they both joined TNA and formed Aces and eight's amazing times.
*Bully* would be a key piece in any promotion cause he has a lot of knowledge an knows how to play heel or face.
A sit down with bully and regal would be a very interesting listen, because the insight that they both bring would be really good
His commentary on "old vs. young," and the mentality that he's "taking someone's spot" is right on the money.
Been a fan for years. He, and Devon, honestly don't get enough credit for their impact on professional wrestling. Loved them in ECW. Bully single handedly kept TNA/ Impact relevant... ensured Old Man Hogan got screen time and made Brooke Hogan interesting for at least 15 minutes. Love his work in both the NWA and Impact. Literally playing Babyface and Heel at the same time. #ThMan
Bully Ray has so many gems about the business, one of the finest in the game. He deserves all the respect/praise.
I would genuinely love a long term Bully Ray and Eddie Kingston team up/feud.
Actually, that is a great idea. Not opposed here.
ONLY if Eddie Kingston sticks his tongue out & says WAZZZZUPPPPP then does a front flip leg drop to the opponents groin while Bully Ray holds them in place
They're too old now. Should've happened 10 years ago in their prime years
True
@@damedrops8197 Steve Austin just headlined WrestleMania at 58. I'm pretty sure both guys know how to work a style, an emotional match, without killing themselves.
Good to see you interviewed Cartman, Chris.
😭😅😂🤣
Bruh 🤣
That's Bully Ray, you're talking about, bruh. lol 😆 😂 🤣
Cartman and Token 😂
@@TheBlackKakashiyou mean tolkien bigot lol
Bully Ray’s voice sounds a lot like Paul Heyman and I never noticed that before.
hahaha right??? i thought i was the only one think he sound like Paul Heyman....
This is why I dig Bubba/Bully Ray, whether he's a babyface or a heel. He tells a story in the ring.
I enjoy Bully simply because he's entertaining, and he pulls no punches. He always approaches it from the business side of the sport, and what he says most of the time is spot-on.
He's completely right about Aew its a great show for how young it is with immense talent it just needs to tighten up the screws a bit. Fans take it way to personally when you tell them it isn't perfect it can still be entertaining chill. Just means it isn't technically sound all around which is what the goal should be. I also completely agree with the Wardlow assessment you got a guy that can replace your monster who was Miro and you just stopped out of nowhere. Between Wardlow and Hobbs I hope they start getting more time. Also cut the promos down having someone talk in the ring 30 minutes of every show takes away match time for talent.
It's only when the wwe cucks come around and start shitting on AEW like wwe doesn't and hasn't done dumb shit in the past too. Neither company is perfect nor will they ever be.
I completely agree. It’s still such a young company. AEW super fans who think it can’t be improved cause it’s perfect are fools.
Well said. I got a buddy of mine who is an AEW die hard. I tuned into Revolution (Despite not keeping up with AEW) and texted him saying how good it was, but it could've been better because of X-Y-Z. His response was "Just admit you're a WWE fanboy and move on". Like, no. Even WWE makes mistakes (obviously). At the end of the day, I can still enjoy it. Doesn't mean that they don't have things that can improve.
@@NiFeGetsTubey Oh for sure. All wrestling companies make mistakes or could do certain thing better. Wrestling fans in general need to better at being fair about all wreslting and not just completely biased towards a certain company. I don't watch WWE very often but I don't sit around and trash them when it just isn't necessary because I happen to watch AEW. If anything i like what they've got going i think the Bloodlines cool, Cody is awesome and made the right choice in leaving AEW, and Gunther is a legit killer that could a be a world champ. Hopefully your friend is able to be more fair in the future.
@@squirtgaming882 For sure every company around the world can be improved in some way. That's life nothings perfect honestly if it was we may not like it as much as when it was imperfect lol.
From his rise to notoriety in ECW to the top of the food chain, WWE to grow even more in TNA with the Aces and Eights to being the voice of Busted Open just to go into NWA and do an angle just to go back to TNA, aka Impact to be the heel that he is most known to be. He's my favorite heel to watch that sells the story PERFECTLY!
I'm glad to hear from Bully that there is no heat with him and Devon. As much as I would love to see the Dudleys do another match, Devon's health is more important. Thanks for the memories guys!!!
Another stellar interview with a true legend of the business. Looking forward to the next one.
Superb interview. Love listening to Bully Ray.
I love when Bully is a guest on any show. His take on wrestling topics are very interesting.
Great to see bully in good health looks well glad he’s doing some bits in impact atm love to see him back in wwe as a manager
Managers shouldn't be bigger than the talent tho...
Saw Bully Ray at the Impact Wrestling pay per view No Surrender and it was definitely a great site to see I've seen him in several videos then I got to see him in person I was like damn this is awesome he did very well
not alot of people can hold my attention for 45 minutes. the whole way he carries himself. like he said id wrestling, riding each wave and hitching the next one at the bottom. much love everyone
That story about Freddy Saying Get the table, was in Philly and I was there live! What a great moment.
The "Dead stare to camera" is back, babyyyy!! I've been missing this! Bully Ray is always such a great guest for you, man. He really seems to push you out of your comfort zone, which I love watching.
I saw an interview with Bubba a long time ago where he said The Dudley Boys don't consider The Dudley Boys in the running for best tag team ever. But for me, they are the best ever. Whoever won the match or lost - anyone that stepped in the ring with the Dudleys was going to get their ASS beat.
He is brilliant on Busted Open Radio.
Always such a great interview.
Another great interview as always!
I wonder if we'll ever see him back in WWE in an MVP like role as a manager. He'd obviously be great at it.
He needs to wrestle as Bully ray especially in this PC era
@@holdthetruthhostage “bully” in wwe would be great
@@GotchYoAss he would bring the attitude Era Back, I think AWE needs to workout something with Impact for an invasion story Lead By Bully, have Taz as a Traitor and hook ACES & 8
He could be a version of Heyman but with a physical presence, it would be great
This interview is amazing, great job Chris. ECW fan for Life.
Another amazing interview Chris
Love the angle man!!! Tripod and mics, let’s goooo!!!
Great chat as always! Keep killing it, CVV!
Thanks Luke!
I wish that Bully could have had a run in NXT to help guys like Bron Breaker, Bron has had a great run but it could have been that much better with a guy like Bully
Bully Ray reminds of Paul Heyman more and more everyday.
Even that i born in 02, i watch some moments of the Dudley Boys, and Man! What a team!
Still to this day the tag team I hold near and dear to my heart always will be the Dudley Boyz. Also Tag Team Goals! I got to meet D-Von a couple of years back and it was an honor although I wad working that day but now I got to meet Bully Ray. Both are legends in my book and the true greatest tag team of all time. 🍻
Loving the vibes with this one bud! Sometimes less Is more (No studio) ❤🇨🇦
Chris man I love watching your interviews. Been watching your RUclips for years. Best pro wrestling interviewer in my opinion.
Bully's work with Flip Gordon was great stuff. His ability to make Flip might be the highlight of Flips career.... Wonder why he's never made it to AEW ?
I am a fan of Bully since his TNA days
Especially With the Aces and eights
It’s one of my favorite storylines
And bully became one of my favorites
I also loved that Ken Anderson was part of Aces and eights too
I love to hear him talk. great stories, straight to the point he won’t sugar coat it for people. He’s a great wrestler and wanna know how be a great heel ask him. But what happen to the story on why he wasn’t able to use the bully character in wwe? Was hoping he would tell it.
He's awesome. Great stories. Listen to him every chance I get
First time listening to bully love how open and honest he comes across is a legend off the buisness even says he's not a grate wrestler but he is a grate at getting a good story across
Awesome interview !
33:00 - I'm at that autograph session in England at FTLOW (FOR THE LOVE OF WRESTLING), can't wait to meet The Dudleys. I know the feeling about the New Age Outlaws, met them at FTLOW last year (2022) together, it was brilliant.
Chris - you gotta turn up to FTLOW one day, it be worth it. I've been to the previous two FTLOW and they have been worth it meeting the legends and current stars of other promotions
Gotta love Bubba 🤘🏾 awesome interview as always, Chris !
Great interview
Bully is the Man..Bully is 5 star all day
The Fan's give that rating. .. in Fact He definitely is also One of a kind .He is gonna go Down as one of the GOAT'S . .there is no question about that.. . Look at his Body of Work... it's incredible. Wrestling doesn't keep
Him relevant, He Keeps Wrestling Relevant. !
Bully Ray CVV interviews, goes way together.
A Stellar interview!
It’s so cool to see someone who’s really passionate about wrestling
Great chat! Really enjoyed it!
Thanks for checking it out!
This was a really good investment in my time.
Best part is, him clearing up the misconception about AEW.
Much respect to bully man he has done so much and the way he does his stuff in the ring and the experience he has always love to hear bubba talk he just is so knowledgeable of the business
Power And Glory finish: "Power-Plex" (Diving Superplex by Hercules and Diving Body Splash by Roma) It was dope
That background is unbelievable
I wish Bully Ray waa in charge of the creative direction of a wrestling show. He has a great mind for the business.
Really want to hear him talk indepth about AEW more, great insight.
Bully's a great interview.
Bubba looks a lot like Alex Jones during parts of this interview
Watched the who interview and it’s great. Thank you.
Great interview Chris you should try and do a interview with Joel Gertner
bully is awesome, love watchin him on the nwa and impact.
Great interview Big Pimpin,By the way the reason I call Chris Big pimpin is because he wears really nice suits and he looks awesome,But Chris gets what I'm saying everytime I see a picture with him on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter it's just a nickname I gave him.
im to young to have grown up on bubba ray and the first time I remember ever seeing bubba as bully ray on tna with hogan fighting with the aces and i fell in love ever since then
This is at Sam's Town here in my hometown of Vegas. It's only a few miles from my house and I'm here all the time, wish I would have been here during this interview. Probably wouldnt have interrupted them because I'm sure it wouldn't go over well with them.
Bubba always was one of my favorites! His "full nelson sitdown" is amazing
Bro those damn Dudleys were beyond super duper over. You just had to be there man.
Bubba/Bully vs The Hardy’s Was The Best Tag Team Beef In WWE(WWF) To Me‼️
I liked the “3D” when Bubba ran to get the finisher instead of standing there waiting
36 minutes into this interview and you guys are talking about how MJF wouldn't be able to play the same character in WWE. At the time I would have agreed with this. Now as I wrote this, a week before Wrestlemania XL, with all the main event edge currently, I could see that MJF fitting 5 his current character. Even more so next year after Raw goes to Netflix. Oh how things change and it's insane. What a time to be a fan!!!
CVV...not only are your interviews awesome, but those pythons are jacked. IcoPro DOES work! Keep up doin' what your doin'!
💪🐍
More wrestlers need to listen to Bully!!!! 💯🔥😎🤙
Back in the day, the first first match of most pay-per-views used to be Dudleys vs Hardys vs Edge and Christian..most matches were magic
I appreciate Bully/Bubba for just being himself no matter what. I love that he's a straight shooter because we all need that in life. Love or hate him he deserves all the respect in the world for what he has accomplished.
bully ray so awesome on chris van vliet podcast !!!
Aw how nice.. Bobby Hill all grown up!
6:42 Best Bully Ray quote ever
I never noticed this before, he really sounds exactly like Paul Heyman. It's also in what and how he says things but his voice and Paul's are very similar.
I really enjoyed this. Outside location, fountain noise in background. Aesthetically pleasing background. Super great listen and you can tell Chris really enjoyed this! 🫡
Righteously would love to meet this guy.
Whenever Bubba decides to 'retire' I think he would be invaluable as someone in charge of the storytelling aspect of any pro wrestling organization. Knows so much and cares so much about the business.
Thank you
Was not expecting to hear Bully talk about GWAR. Those guys are awesome!
I absolutely love the Freddy Blassie story!
Given how much you’re in Vegas, I’d love to see you do an interview at the BlueWire studio with Brad Owen.
Within different lanes, both of you have shown the power of RUclips in getting over and building an audience.
Who is Brad Owen?

@@donaldtaylor724 I lived in vegas from 2002 to 2012. Miss the city! Thanks for being human and replying :) aloha!
Bully ray is true to his word ,I saw him at the old ecw arena and he was grilling me hard as f*** for no reason lol as a 🍺 buzzed fan I said what's up lol if I was sober I would ve have bought merch and took a pic with him 🏆🪖💣 he s still one of the best to lace up a pair of wrestling boots
Team 3D reunion is scheduled to occur on the Impact Wrestling 1000 episode taking place in White Plains NY.
Bullys right.
The heat he can generate is very impressive.
Cvv is off to a great 2023
I love how santino calls bully bobby, I think it's funny but also santino trying to get as close to calling him bubbah as possible without a law suit haha
everytime I see Bubba...he morphs more and more into Paul E. and Dana White 🤣 good man!
Bully Ray is smooth, I like how he worked CVV there at the end, CVV was uneasy lol.
good interiview, is that Sam's Town hotel in Vegas?
Good eye!
@@ChrisVanVliet love that place, also if you ever get to interview Sami Zayn please please ask him about his wrestling boots. He has had them since I started watching him in ROH and has them since. Even with wrestling gear changes, he has kept the same wrestling boots, Be cool to know the story behind that. Thank you for what you do
Lovely Stuff
