In a conversation on Busted Open Radio, Bully Ray criticized WWE and the wrestling industry in general for their lack of creativity in selling injuries and post-match situations. He pointed out an instance where Seth Rollins appeared on Raw without a scratch after a Last Man Standing Match against Shinsuke Nakamura at Fastlane.
"These are the things that bother me," Ray criticized. "You killed the credibility of the match and the credibility of the back injury. You killed everything Shinsuke Nakamura did to you, shots from the stairs, going through tables, Falcon Arrows through tables, and not even a limp? Not even a shoulder issue? We all know that WWE and Seth Rollins are smarter than that."
The former tag team champion also criticized Rollins for dancing and not showing any signs of pain after a Last Man Standing match: "I'm sick of the lack of selling in this industry," exclaimed Ray. "Whether it's selling in the ring at the moment or afterward. It's out of place. This isn't 'an old man yelling at the clouds,' this is what's right."
"All you did last night was tell me, 'Forget about Fastlane.' And that's the truth," Ray expressed regarding Rollins' segment with Drew McIntyre, who challenged him to a title match for WWE Crown Jewel.
