WWEs newest reality competition series, WWE LFG (Legends & Future Greats), hasnt even premiered yet, but things are already getting heated. In a preview clip posted to WWEs YouTube page, Bully Ray wasted no time putting one of the shows prospects, BJ Ray, in check after a tense exchange in front of the coaches.
BJ Ray, who clearly wasnt shy about making an impression, kicked things off by addressing Bully Ray directly, feeling slighted over their first interaction.
When I first got here to this LFG or whatevers going on in this place, I reached out my hand to Bubba to shake his hand. I felt completely disrespected. So, Bubba, heres the reality. Im not gonna sit here like one of these little soy boys with my tail tucked between my legs. Nah, bro, I aint about that. Im about showing respect, BJ Ray declared.
Bully wasnt impressed. That was really good, Bully said. BJ, looking for approval, responded with Yes, sir. Thats when Bully shut him down.
Im talking, youre not, he snapped before dismantling BJs whole approach. As if you had some kind of legit issue with me. See, not only am I a successful professional wrestler, Im a professional psychologist and poker player.
BJ fired back, refusing to back down. Look at you, Bubba, on your high horse.
Bully wasnt having it. This is not a high horse. Im in two Hall of Fames and I have more championships than you have shower time, he shot back.
BJ, still unfazed, responded, Cool, Im glad that defines you, Bubba. Im glad that defines you, Bubba.
Bully, unimpressed, doubled down. So Im glad that what you think is going to work for you. Youre doing, so maybe you wanna think about the attitude moving forward during this show.
BJ, clearly still fired up, responded, All right, Ill chew on it. Bullys final words? Chew on it really good.
With moments like this already happening before the shows official debut, WWE LFG is shaping up to be one of the most intense reality series in wrestling history. With Triple H, Shawn Michaels, The Undertaker, Booker T, and Mickie James overseeing the competition, the heat is only going to get stronger.
Will BJ Ray take Bully Rays advice, or is this just the beginning of even more drama? Drop your thoughts in the comments!
