On a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, Bully Ray critiqued Tony Khan’s booking of AEW heading into All In 2023 at Wembley Stadium in London.
Ray pointed out the lack of cohesion and vignettes to remind fans of what happened in storylines on the road to All In 2023.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On Tony Khan’s booking of All In 2023: “I think Tony is booking this show for the AEW diehard, the AEW faithful. I think he’s booking this show for ‘holy sh*t’ chants, ‘that was awesome’ chants, as many five-star matches [as] he can get. I think that’s the motivation behind this show.”
On AEW’s motivation to host the show in England: “I also think the motivation is, ‘Oh, we put as many people in Wembley Stadium as the WWE did.’”
On AEW never reminding you what happens in their stories: “Every single segment that they had [WWE], had a last week vignette, where they reminded you what happened. The WWE is constantly reminding you of what happened. My concern for All In is that we’re never going to be reminded of what happened. It’s going to come, it’s going to, it’s going to be awesome and then that’s it.”
On his thoughts on All In 2023: “Mind you, I’m not taking anything away from All In because I know how AEW fans are. They listen in certain ways. They listen in ways in which they only hear what they want to hear, when they want to hear it. I think this is going to be an incredible show, an incredible night, hopefully with some incredible moments. A celebration of what AEW is up until this point.”
