Oliber. Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 Guy needs to win the title at least once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazman™ Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 It's about time to. Bully Ray has always been a fantastic heel, even when he teamed with Devon. He maybe a douche bag in real life but other than Daniels, he is probably more deserving of a World title reign than anyone in TNA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNFNS Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 Bully Ray is a fantastic heel, this guy gets too much heat at shows. He argues with the kids and insults their mother and sister. I swear when Ray stepped out the ring during his entrance the kid jumped 2 rows back. While bobby roode got cheered by the crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear when Ray stepped out the ring during his entrance the kid jumped 2 rows back. While bobby roode got cheered by the crowd. I haven't seen iMPACT for ages, but if that's true, then the claims are 100% true. As JBL has stated multiple times before (and this is a paraphrase) "If you are the heel, you never want to get cheered. You want the crowd to hate your guts". From the sounds of it, that's what Ray is doing and few can match that (I'd argue Mark Henry back when he first started his Hall of Pain Gimmick and threw that sound guy around). As for Sarita, hope everything in Canada is alright. As for Mr. Prichard, I wish him the best. As someone who has to deal with Heart issues myself, they can be scary and having not one, but TWO heart attacks (no matter how small) can take a while to recover from. My Capitalism and Democracy Teacher at my college was out for a month after a "small" heat attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lumpy McRighteous Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Bully's definitely one of the best heels in TNA, but the best one going today? I think not, TNA. While he's done a superb job of losing weight and reinventing himself, Bully shouldn't be the WHC over Bobby Rooooooooo. Since Devon won the TV Title for no apparent reason, Bully would definitely be the best man to beat him for the belt due to not only their history, but also because he deserves a singles title for his hard work.

Scorpion™ Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 Bully Ray deserves it. He never had his singles career. And since making a singles run, he's done pretty well. I would love him to be champ, and maybe feud with Hardy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axel Mulligan Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 I watched this weeks iMPACT for the first time in months last night and was pleasantly surprised to see Ray is still getting shit loads of heat. No one in the crowd cheers him whereas other heels seem to get a few cheers. I wouldn't be upset to see Bully become World Champion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alberto DelRiJoe Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 He's a VERY good heel but Storm (if he wins on Sunday) should have a really long reign first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avenger. Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 Why are people surprised that Ray is a really good heel? He's basically playing his real life self, no wonder he's so good at getting heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronson Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 If Bully isn't the best heel in wrestling, him and Bobby Roode are 1 and 1A. He should definitely get a World Title run, and soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWF WrestleFest Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Bully Ray IS the best heel in wrestilng right now. A perfect example was when they had a PPV in Philly a few months back and all the old ECW fans were cheering him. One intervew segment later, he got crowd to turn on him. I do think he desrves a title run, but It'd be kind of hard right now since the champ is also a heel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jefffan Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Is Bully Ray deserving of the world title? Yes. But the fact they want to be the belt on him confirms to me that the main event scene is the worst in TNA's short history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still no doubt that Bully's fantastic in the role of being a prick, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, God forbid TNA put the title on someone who has worked hard over the past year to get in better shape,constantly draw heat from the crowd and is pretty consistant with putting on good matches. Why anybody want to put the World title on a person like that is just mind boggling, nothing more than crazy talk I tell you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RHE2007 Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 put belt on bully ray i guantee tna ratings sink so fast it wouldn't be funny. most people don't paid money see people like bully wrestling in main event whether bully desrves it or not.

BlackToxic Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Please No. Bully Ray has been a tag-team wrestler for nearly his entire career for a good reason, he isn't good enough on his own, yeah he's good on the mic and funny with it, yeah he can be entertaining but he's pathetic in the ring, especially for a veteran, just look at his performance at Lethal Lockdown, most of the time he's sloppy as hell and even Gunner looks like a more solid wrestler when in the same ring as him. Why would TNA need him to be the Champ? How would that benefit TNA or TNA's ratings in any shape or form? It wouldn't, if anything it would help them go the other way, Bully Ray is good where he is, he doesn't even need the title and the title doesn't need him either, he's in the spotlight filling in the gaps and supporting upcomers and very good at doing that role, does he deserve more? maybe, but not at the expense of the company, not when you have other Wrestlers on the show who would bring in better ratings as a Champ and be alot more fresh than Bully and likely be around for alot longer. I Don't think TNA can afford to give Bully a "you deserve it" title run right now and i don't want to see Bully vs Devon again (referring to him having a TNA TV Title run). While i'm on the subject of Wrestlers doing nothing for a title and being potentially poor title runs... why has Devon now randomly got the title? Unless they really are planning another Bully/Devon Storyline then i don't see where it's going to go at all, hopefully it's a quick transitional run for another Heel. Unlike Bully, Devon has shown little to nothing in terms of progression as a singles wrestler since they split, he's always been the sounder wrestler of the two but he hasn't done anything entertaining in years and i don't see that changing anytime soon. The TV Title doesn't needs a has-been, it needs a spark, much like alot of other Promotion's mid-card titles have been for the last few years it gets little to no attention, it needs a major dose of Rhodes treatment and fast, get someone who they can build the title around (Aries?) and use it for the actual purpose for mid-card titles, building up the possible next TNA Champs. They have enough talent and enough airtime to dedicate a proper storyline worth watching, i can think of at least 6 singles feuds going on right now in TNA which none have a title for, not to say they need to have titles for those feuds but they could, at least for the sake of the title actually being used properly.

Oliber. Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 If the talk is about who is the best heel in the business today, I'll throw in Takashi Iizuka's name. Four years in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
