Infinit Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 I'll give Tony Khan the benefit of the doubt. He sounds like one of us (the good ones lol) consistently. Especially his genuine love for the business and its history. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joseph2112 Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 I've been most;y negative on Eric Bischoff but here's the thing. The guy obviously has accomplished things in TV and that could be a great contribution to WWE and could have possibly been to AEW when it comes to presentation and how things look on TV. I would think AEW would like something like that, and I bet they will even more after a few weeks of live TV. So Meltzer not getting why they would want Bischoff at all or people on this board doing the "Har har, people are shitting on Bischoff but saying AEW should look like Nitro" aren't looking at the full picture. The guy may have something to add to a television show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the TNA production stuff improving noticeably when he took over. I don't really have anything really positive about the actual wrestling part of it. (Again, there was some good stuff in there, I'll never be the all or nothing guy. My brain doesn't work like that). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyld Samurai Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 I can see why they'd choose Bischoff for Smackdown. Heyman, for all of his qualities when producing a wrestling program- isnt exactly corporate. Putting him on FOX would a trainwreck. I've been listening to quite a bit of 83 Weeks recently. Part of me thinks that he's grown and learned from his mistales- while the other half of me just thinks he's blinded by his own ego. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The line from those people is that whatever Bischoff added to WCW was actually the work of someone else, and whatever didn't work in WCW he bears full responsibility for. Meltzer doesn't get it because he's been shitting on Bischoff for 25 years whether he was successful or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Bischoff came in, they steered clear of "the invisible cameraman" for a while and moved towards "cameraman around the corner observes clandestine meeting from a distance." Nearly ten years since then and WWE still hasn't figured it out. If Bischoff gets even that much done, he's my hero. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
