#5 Bully Ray lashes out at AEW star Eddie Kingston for taking shots at WWE
Hardcore wrestling legend and WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray recently asked AEW star Eddie Kingston to stay within his limits.
Eddie Kingston grabbed headlines this past Saturday when he took several shots at WWE after the Dynamite show went off the air. He stated that legends in AEW are treated more respectfully than the other companies, pointing towards WWE.
He even went far and said that the AEW star does not work here to get themselves big paychecks.
Fans not only acknowledged Kingston's dig at WWE but also appreciated him for throwing some reality checks.
However, Bully Ray didn't seem too impressed with Eddie Kingston's claim. Appearing on the Busted Open Radio, the former WWE superstar stated reminded Eddie Kingston of why he spent so much time in the Indies and asked him not to cross the line.
"Eddie Kingston needs to shut the f*** up and stay in his lane," Bully Ray declared. "And his lane is as an AEW guy speaking about AEW and flying the flag for AEW, then I'm on completely on board. Tell me why that you were an indie guy for the majority of your career. Now this company took a chance on you, and you have learned to love it and everything about it. Now I'm on board, Eddie, but to take the easy way out and knock the WWE, there's no reason to go there. If Cody wants to destroy a throne, I get it. If Jericho wants to say, Eff you, I got it. Eddie, why? There's no reason for Eddie to say it." added Ray
Bully Ray's comments may have hit Eddie Kingston hard, but the way that promo went, someone would come after him sooner or later.
