Bully Ray is firmly behind one WWE star at Money in the Bank, even if he believes her chances are slim.
On the June 21st edition of SmackDown, Chelsea Green defeated Bianca Belair and Michin to earn her way into the women’s Money in the Bank ladder match on July 6th. Speaking on a recent edition of Busted Open Radio, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray put his support firmly behind Green in the match, even if he believes other stars have a better chance of winning.
“1000% who I want to win is Chelsea Green. Who do I think will win? Lyra. Chelsea with that briefcase is entertainment gold…it’s just gold. But it’s never going to happen. Tiffany or Lyra [will win].”
Continuing, the WWE Hall of Famer made it clear that he believes Green has earned the right to be rewarded with a top prize in WWE.
“You know I hate the word ‘deserve’ when it comes to pro wrestling. I love the word ‘earn.’ Nobody deserves anything in pro wrestling, you get what you earn. That’s why I hate the chant ‘You deserve it!’ Shut up.
Chelsea, in my opinion, has earned the right to be thrown a bone, to give her more TV time. Because, as I said, as you backed up, Chelsea with that briefcase, she will make that briefcase mean more than anybody else. She will look at that briefcase as if it is more important than the Women’s World Championship.”
Following her qualifying match victory on June 21st, Chelsea Green vowed to start a petition for the return of the Divas Championship if she were to win Money in the Bank.
