The bullfighter rushed right to the ring! (6)
I believe the answer is:
torero
'the bullfighter' is the definition.
('torero' can be a synonym of 'bullfighter')
'rushed right to the ring' is the wordplay.
'rushed' becomes 'tore' (to tear around is to rush or run fast).
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'to the ring' becomes 'o'.
'tore'+'r'+'o'='TORERO'
(Other definitions for torero that I've seen before include "One perhaps impaled" , "Escamillo, for example" , "Bullring occupant" , "hero in the ring" , "Blood-sport participant" .)
