Eric Bischoff

[Guest Matt]

Is it really wise of Vince to of brought in Eric Bischoff he dosen't have a very impressive CV does he? He let Mick Foley walk out, he told Steve Austin he would never be a star and he ran WCW right out of business so why bring him in?

[Guest Jerichoholic]

Bischoff has been in WWE almost a year now, a bit late to bring this debate up isnt it?

[Guest Rikidozan]

Bischoff doesn't have any creative power.

 

P.S, Bischoff doesn't have an impressive C.V?, he beat Vince for nearly two years straight. Plus he brought in great workers like Benoit, Malenko, Ultimo Dragon, the flyers etc etc.

AND HE FIRED TEH STONE COLD AFTER WRASSLEMANIA!!!!!!!!!! OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

*adjusts tie*

 

Like Jerichoholic said, isnt this a little late to debate seeming he's been around for like a year? Also now he is only a part of the show, he is only asked for creative input but doesnt offer any directly. Also he is the guy who helped mould modern wrestling into what it is.

 

He isnt great, but he isnt bad either.

 

However since he has come to the WWE, I think he has added to it, rather than taken anything away from the show.

Like my old pal Singhy says, In WCW he had creative power whereas in the WWE hes just a character following whats written for him. I think hes doing fine personally as hes pretty over as a heel.

Actually Benoit was here about two years before bischoff and Ultimo Dragon sucks.

i take it you hate cusierweights

[Guest Matt]

No man don't get me wrong i just don't ever see a cruiserweight being heavyweight champ (except possibly Rey) some of them are fun to watch though and hey were all entitled to our own opinion.

[Dead Crow 370]

Rey Mysterio will never be world champion yet has more talent than the majority of the RAW main event. And obviously you've never seen Ultimo Dragon cas before his injury, he was in my opinion better than most of the cruisers, including Rey Rey.

 

 

And erm.. Bischoff bought Benoit into WCW, not WWE. And Bischoff was actually the one who made WCW millions through delivering big stars and being the hottest competition WWE would ever have. Can't fault him for that. He didn't kill WCW. The egos of Hogan and crew did.

So i suppose the Austin thing was just a mistake huh ?

to be fair on Bischoff, he couldn't see in to the future and i bet you didn't know Steve austin would one day become a huge success.

Eric Bischoff has made some mistakes, but they were tame compared to others

[Guest Walshy]

Just in case you don't know the full story, Austin was fired because he sustained an Injury (possibly in Japan while he was off TV), he then didn't turn up to work for 2 months, so Bischoff fired him because of that.

 

By the way, if it wasn't for the croperate idiots who wanted to make WCW family orientated, then today Bischoff and WCW would be the number 1 wrestling company in the world.

[Guest F_View]

Bish is a great person, Behind the scenes, id have bish in my company, but as for dust Rhodes i know he was a wrestler and is golddusts dad n all but he isnt to good of a booker, Bish behind scenes is an excellent adtiion.

[Guest Rikidozan]

Lol, Ultimo Dragon sucks?!, and Benoit was actually brought in by Bischoff, Benoit was sent to NJPW and ECW to grow as a worker before entering WCW full-time.

[Guest Dickie Hyde]

This post can be classed as "a bit late" but if you want to know people's opinion's on the matter then it's a very good one.

 

I for one, think that Bischoff plays a very good character. I do not know much about his past (WCW an all) as I never watched WCW.

 

Although I booed him at the time (like every1 does) I was very happy to see him at the road to Insurrextion in Nottingham on June 6th 2003. Even though Stone Cold Steve Austin is my number 1 favourite wrestler without a doubt, Bischoff is great in the storylines. Him and Austin actually go well and work well together. I'm happy to see Bischoff in the WWE. He most probably is better as a character than someone in power but I can't really comment on that as I said earlier, I don't know alot about his past.

 

One person I'd like to see show up in the WWE again is Shane McMahon, I'd like the roster-split to end and there to be the same gm's for shows but possibly Shane on SD with or without Steph.
