During the latest edition of Busted Open Radio, Bully Ray talked about the situation with Ring of Honor going on hiatus. Ray said the following in regards to a conversation he had with an official from the company around the time Cody Rhodes and The Young Bucks left the promotion:
“I was asked by a higher-up at Ring of Honor ‘moving forward what do you think we should do?’ The number 1 thing I said is sign Cody and the [Young] Bucks. I can take you to the office I was in, the chair that I was sitting in in the office at Sinclair broadcasting at their TV studio when I was asked ‘What should we do?’ I said you have to sign Cody and the Bucks. They are the most important people to your company right now. The most important talent.”
“And we know from interviews or discussions that Cody and the Bucks might have had, that they said the negotiations with Ring of Honor did not go the way they thought they were going to go because they felt they had earned the right to ask for the money that they were asking for and lord knows Sinclair had it.”
