Can someone tell me anything that Bischoff has achieved in the wrestling business since 1998?:sas1:

I mean...if we're giving people jobs due to what they did in the 90s, then why not give Russo a job? :sas2:

I'm quite surprised at the backlash this is getting (hiring "dinosaurs"), but then again I shouldn't. The IWC always bytches. :mjlol:

74, 64 and 53 year olds aren’t going to know what the target wrestling demos want more than the top 5 guys in AEW who are 36,35,34,34 and 29. That’s common sense. You’re bytching about bytching.

Heyman and Bischoff aren’t writing the shows theirselves, they’re executives. Russo never been an executive. The executive during Russo’s only successful run as writer was Vince McMahon. That said, Heyman and Bischoff absolutely need to identify younger men and women that are in tune with what will work today and grant them agency to see many of their ideas through to make the product contemporary. Russo was once that young man, but he is now 58 years old.

This is good news. I will say Heyman getting more power is not surprising dude has been reportedly and seen helping young talent out.

Eazy E on the other hand is out of left field but I was kinda surprised how positive they were on that untold doc basically saying that everything was Turner and Russo fault so this may have been in the works for a minute.

But this is definitely is a smart move they have some of the best/innnovative US Booker's on their payroll with Heyman, bischoff, and Gabe.

Vince about to turn 74 in a couple months & is about to restart his football league. Vince really is preparing for the exit :wow:

Triple H is going to hand NXT off to one of his guys & take over Vince's spot with Heyman & Bischoff leading the shows up. Vince getting out of there might finally mean the end of Kevin Dunn & some of his goofy shyt too.

I dont see any of this being the case.

I see it as a PR attempt to get fans watching again amid al this bad press. And also for Heyman and Bischoff to be puppets basically.

They're gonna report to Vince. Which means he's gonna shoot down whatever they suggest.

Vince isnt going anywhere, ESPECIALLY not with the company dragging the way it is. If it hits sky high again somehow, he may walk away then.
