WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray (Bubba Ray Dudley) appeared on an episode of Busted Open Radio, where he talked about a number of topics, including why fans support CM Punk and gravitate towards him.
Ray said, “The fanbase is at the point, with CM Punk, where they do not care about his past — quote, unquote — screw-ups, they don’t care that he turned around and he left and he took his bat and his ball, they don’t care about the MMA fighting, they don’t care about AEW.”
On how Punk always comes off as genuine:
“I’m not going to say Punk is genuine, I’m not going to say Punk is honest, but he comes off as genuine and honest. Punk is able to do something that not a lot of wrestlers — I don’t really know of any other wrestler that can use tone the way Punk does.”
