How many of you WWF/WWE fans were legitamately PISSED when Eric Bischoff

[Notorioushnic]

would read the results of Raw on Nitro before Raw even came on the air? That was a straight kick in Vinny Mac's nuts right there. It was a smart but ballsy move. Especially when he read the results of a Mankind/Aldo Montoya main event. Who was gonna see that shyt?? lol

 

[Busby]

I was too young to understand back then..but looking back at it..that was a straight up move

 

[Notorioushnic]

I knew it was shots when he would refer to them as the World Whining Federation.. Even called Goldust a tranvestite on the air

Heres what bischoff fukked up

Traditionally in wrestling...you KNOW WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN


in fact

You watch, or (get this) PAY to see that result

So, when bischoff reads a result like "mankind will win the title" kids are like "WORD? Lemme see that shyt"...

Wrestling isnt usually supposed to be a surprise...he never got that...sometimes thats good...but usually, especially if a heel has the belt...you want the fans to know that "if you pay money, you will see X result." when i was a kid...i wanted to see hogan beat savage...and he did...i wanted to see austin beat hbk....we knew GOING INTO IT, this was gonna happen, and hbk would lose...and we paid for it...and this happened...and we were happy. If you betray this too often...why buy?

He was a tv guy...not a wrestling mind...and never got that...

But to the point, i wasnt pissed because it had no baring on whether or not i wanted to see it; i already knew it was fake and even today spoilers dont stop you from watching.

I was mainly talking about the begining stages like around 95-96. It sorta of worked for a minute and got under Vince's skin.. He didnt do it every week but it had its effect because Vince came back with the Billionare Ted skits. LOL

Then had Medusa throw Vince's belt in the Trash.. Good God Bischoff was disrespectful

That was etherous lol

The only time they pissed me off was the nitro after survivor series 97 when the nwo came out with canadian flags, welcoming bret hart into wcw....i knew they were gonna fukk his shyt up right then and was right

All that bullshyt made WWF step their game up.

shyt was the worst! Aldo Montoya

Bischoff dug his own grave though. fukk you Bischoff

 

[Takerstani]

Didn't care, ignored all that esp.with the timing of the shows (trying to remember). Competition=good for consumers. I didn't buy into the feud, just enjoyed the entertainment. I know what's going to happen on SD 95% of the time and RAW most of the time and still watch.

Prior to the Bret screw job that introduced me to the internet

I didn't have a computer back then I used to go to the library and have to sign up to get a hour time on some 56k bullshyt thinking that shyt was like magic.

But that is how I learned bytchoff got them results

There were times when I knew I wasn't going to be able to watch raw cuz we were going to be at my relatives spot that night and all they would do is watch weak ass Hindi movies and hated wrestling like fukk that gay shyt so I would print out the results for raw on the wed the week before to stay up to date

This a question for the og marks. Do y'all remember when we got swerved on some raw tapings results saying jake snake came through and snaked up a Nikka? shyt turned out to be false results. Back then jrs blog was the observer haha

But on the real I never had a issue with nitro shytting on raw even though it backfired with foley. I look back at it like some gangstah mob shyt

 

[jackswstd]

I thought that shyt was funny made me respect Bischoff for having the balls to go at Vince like that. He fukked up though when he announced Mankind won the belt he underestimated the fans love of Mick.

 

[Doctor Wily]

I had th e internet back then and would just read the spoilers on those old geocities sites
