Eric Bischoff – How He Almost Signed A Crucial WWE Figure
$0.99
We sift through each of the lingering rumors about Eric Bischoff potentially signing marquee talent from WWE to WCW. Was it Undertaker?
Description
Eric Bischoff is the second most successful wrestling promoter in history. No one other than Easy-E has ever come close to putting Vince McMahon and the mighty WWE out of business. Bischoff led WCW to become the most dominant brand in sports entertainment. For 83 straight weeks, Nitro, under Bischoff’s creative guidance, defeated Raw in the ratings. That is incredible, and something that will likely never happen again. Eric deserves immense credit for that, but unfortunately, he is often seen as a lucky guy who was given Ted Turner’s blank checkbook, which enabled him to sign away all of WWE’s top talent. That is a ridiculous notion. But that’s a story for another day. This time we are speaking about a certain someone really close to joining WCW during the Monday Night Wars, and if this person had left WWE, we would perhaps be tuning into Nitro every Monday night instead of WWE’s flagship show, Monday Night Raw.
