On “Busted Open Radio,” wrestling veteran Bully Ray shared his ideas on AEW’s newest pay-per-view, World’s Finish. Bully argued that Thunder Rosa dedicating the bout to her sick father was like handing AEW a tried-and-true storyline on a platter, and blamed Tony Khan for not leaning into it extra.
“Tony Khan would not care about that story,” Bully bluntly claimed in regards to the lack of buildup. “When you’re gonna use the dad and the dad’s illness as part of the storyline, sure– you need to be telling that in your dominant present of ‘Dynamite.’ That could be a story we will all relate to: a sick member of the family. … and it is very straightforward to inform that story.”
Not solely did Bully lament the match’s weak setup, he additionally criticized the end. He mentioned as a substitute of counting on a giant transfer for a 1-2-3, AEW may’ve integrated Rosa’s weak father. Bully spitballed a special match stipulation and end that would’ve generated extra warmth.
“Use the dad for the end,” Bully advised. “When Thunder Rosa is thrashing the ever-leaving daylights out of Mariah Might … that is when Mariah Might takes a kendo stick, jumps over the guardrail, holds Thunder Rosa’s dad hostage…places Thunder’s dad in a really precarious scenario that Thunder has to say ‘I give up’…That is the way you make the most of that story.”
