Multi-time tag team champion and Hall of Famer Bully Ray recently gave his opinion on WWE legend Christian Cage's promo on AEW Dynamite.

Captain Charisma turned heel last week after Jurassic Express lost the tag team titles against The Young Bucks on Dynamite. Cage viciously assaulted Jungle Boy and even had an ugly confrontation with the latter's family members. This week, he explained his actions and further berated the 25-year-old star.

Fans and wrestling personalities were in shock following Christian Cage's promo. Among them was WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray, who wondered if the star went too far.

"Christian just got Thermonuclear Heat. But did he go “too far? Your thoughts… #AEWDynamite @BustedOpenRadio," wrote Ray.

Fans had a mixed response to Christian Cage's promo on AEW Dynamite

Following his shocking betrayal seven days ago, Captain Charisma appeared in an interview with Tony Schiavone on this week's Dynamite. He bashed the fans before moving on to his prime target, Jungle Boy.

Cage said that revenge has been on his mind since the Jurassic Express member eliminated him in the Casino Battle Royale last year. The former WWE Superstar added that managing Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus helped him make easy money in AEW.

He ended his promo by saying that JB's deceased father would be ashamed and embarrassed of his son.

"I never wanted to be your [Jungle Boy] father figure. But you have a father, and he's dead. He'd be ashamed and embarrassed," Cage said.
