What do you think of Eric Bischoff?

It was the perfect example of a quick fix on top. It was building a palacial mansion with no foundation or support beams. And daring to build it in the face of a tornado. It was doomed to fail.
Taking money, and using it to sign other peoples stars is not talent. Especially when you just use greed to lure them out, and give them anythign they want. Including creative control which becomes a cancer. But that didn't matter at the time. It was just about getting them for the moment and not thinking ahead.
Then it was about luring star after star and not pushing their own.

Bischoffs talents were that he was ruthless. He did clever things, that some would call dirty. Nonetheless, they were creative. He came strong and knocked the WWE in the dirt. But he got off early with his one big sucker punch, he wasn't close to being qualified for the long fight. Neither was the company. It has everything to do with Ted Turners checkbook and control over multiple network television stations.
