Former TNA Champion Added To ROH Roster, Details On Deal

Former TNA World Champion and WWE star Bully Ray, also known as Bubba Ray Dudley debuted for ROH at Manhattan Mayhem this weekend.

Fightful.com has confirmed a PWInsider report that Ray had been negotiating with Ring of Honor for several weeks. The deal wasn't a one-off as many suspected, and he'll be with the company moving forward.
