Eric Bischoff responds to internet wrestling fans calling WWE “the MAGA company”
While speaking on his podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff responded to internet wrestling fans calling WWE “the MAGA company” with the following remarks…
“Isn’t the fact that it was WWE who introduced Bad Bunny to the mainstream American audience in a bigger way than anybody outside the music industry? How can we say that? How can we arrive at the conclusion that WWE is one way or another when, in fact, they’re giving both sides of the equation great entertainment?
If all they would do is book hardcore conservative country acts — yeah, okay. But that’s not the case. They’re not doing that.
I don’t know. I think people are trying to make more out of this because it’s good commentary. It’s good clickbait. It’s great podcast conversation. I think it’s just a lot of freaking cheap noise.
Yeah, cheap heat in wrestling — which is why it’s considered cheap heat, because it’s so freaking easy to get. It has no value. This is kind of like cheap content.
And I think the internet wrestling community is creating it because now they have something new to fight about, make fun of each other over, and accuse each other of horrific things. Now we can do that and talk about wrestling at the same time. That’s what all this is.
I think it’s a sad commentary, is what it really is.”
