For those who have asked, we are told that the debut of Bully Ray (Bubba Ray Dudley) in Ring of Honor over the weekend at Manhattan Mayhem VI was not a last second agreement, but something that had been in discussions for some time. We are told that ROH will be his priority going forward and that this is not planned to be a deal where he makes just a few appearances and finishes up.
PWInsider.com has also learned that Bully has signed a deal to appear regularly on SiriusXM Radio's wrestling series "Busted Open" and those appearances will begin today. An official press release can be found below:
On Twitter today, Bully noted that the Team 3D Wrestling Academy in Florida celebrates its tenth anniversary and posted the following offer to prospective students in honor of that milestone:

Bully Ray Joins “Busted Open” on SiriusXM
Longtime wrestling star and multi-time champion will host SiriusXM’s exclusive pro wrestling show twice a week starting today
NEW YORK – March 6, 2017 – SiriusXM announced today that longtime pro wrestler Bully Ray has joined SiriusXM as co-host of the popular wrestling show, Busted Open, alongside SiriusXM’s Dave LaGreca.
Busted Open can be heard nationwide every weekday (2:00-4:00 pm ET) on SiriusXM Rush, channel 93 on satellite radios and the SiriusXM app.
Bully Ray will make his debut on the show today, March 6, and will host again tomorrow, March 7. Starting next week, he will host the show every Thursday and Friday, bringing the same opinionated, no-nonsense personality that has been on display over many years in and out of the ring. He and LaGreca will take calls from wrestling fans around the country and discuss the headline stories happening across the world of wrestling.
As a former ECW, WWE and TNA Impact Wrestling star Bully Ray brings over 25 years of in-ring experience, both as a singles and a tag-team competitor, to SiriusXM Rush. He has held a total of 35 championships and today remains an active wrestler on the independent circuit. He also owns and operates the Team 3D Academy of Professional Wrestling and Sports Entertainment in Kissimmee, Florida with his long-time tag team partner D’Von.
Bully Ray will also be an integral part of Busted Open’s coverage of Wrestlemania 33 in Orlando, FL later this month.
