Paid Members garynysmon Posted October 15, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 15, 2019 (edited) Never minded Bischoff tbh. Most of the animosity towards him stems from years of WWE "He tried to put us out of business" propaganda by every crying talking head on seemingly every single documentary they've ever done. Hypocritical twats. Either that or for constantly calling Meltzer a cunt. Edited October 15, 2019 by garynysmon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine him collapsing WCW is what most people dislike him for. He was clearly burnt out but he still stood by cashing his cheques and watched it crumble.

Abe_Knuckleball_Schwartz Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Fail to see how anyone can be fully judged in a new role in just over 4 months into the tenure. Guessing he has probably upset Vince somewhere down the line. Must admit though, I thought Heyman would be the first one to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he upped sticks and moved his whole family to another part of the country based on a contract with a company that he's been fired from before then he's a moron. He must have known there was every chance this would happen. What? Did he think this was a 10-15 year job he was getting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted October 15, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 15, 2019 Imagine - IMAGINE - if they are actually blaming Bischoff for Smackdowns disappointing dip in ratings? That would be peak mad bastard Vince. "It's that twat, he's a curse him!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose Heyman has a bit of leverage these days as part of the package with Brock, who they need to keep happy. Prichard is a lick arse so can see why Vince went with him again.

Heyman has reportedly been writing Brock’s storylines for years now anyway, and Ronda Rousey’s, so he must be used to working with mad old Vince creatively.

Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted October 15, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 15, 2019 Bischoff sneezed in front of Vince due to a dust allergy is my guess. Eric Bishoff edition Cluedo coming this Christmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 If you say Eric's surname loud and fast, it sounds like a sneeze so he was fucked before he even began when you think about it. Mad old Vince must've thought he was passing on colds left right and centre when everyone was saying his name in meetings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCJ Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 The writing was on the wall. Constant reports of Vince demanding Smackdown being rewritten. If there was ever going to be a fall guy, then the former CEO of WCW was going to be that man. I actually feel sorry for Bischoff bearing in mind he clearly cared about gaining the position and moved to Connecticut for the role. Vince seems to do things on a whim just because he can but if anything, Vince is the problem right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Supremo Posted October 15, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 15, 2019 (edited) The, “Executive Producer,” of Smackdown getting fired and replaced the week that they lose a million viewers, I can’t see how this isn’t a case of Vince chucking him under the bus to placate Fox. The only surprise is it happened so quickly and Vince hasn’t realised its likely to continue dropping and he’ll run out of scapegoats. “Lads, don’t worry. I’m sacking myself. I’m a sacked man.” Edited October 15, 2019 by Supremo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this Vince guy also works as a manager for a shit warehouse? Understand what you are saying but this role is hardly the same as a warehouse role or stacking shelves in Asda is it? I would envision and expect that a role like this or one of similar ilk would have a minimum term of at least twelve months to actually give the person sufficent time to put their plans in place with the end result ultimately being to improve the product on a consistent basis. But I realise that this is Vince we are talking about, who allegedly looses his shit when someone sneezes in his presence.
