Earlier this week, former WCW President Eric Bischoff stated that there is “no hope” for AEW and “nothing’s going to turn their company around.” Twitter/X user SLICK 2099 wrote the following about Bischoff’s criticism of AEW…

“Eric Bischoff is clearly biased towards WWE. He’s on a legends deal, in their games, and appears on their shows. Plus, he’s still bitter about what Tony Khan said about Ted Turner. It’s obvious.”

Here was Bischoff’s response…

“The depth and breadth of your collective ignorance is a continious source of amusement. I have no ‘legends deal’. I am a completely unencumbered legend that walks freely where, when, how, and with whomever I choose. Because that’s what true legends do. ‘Bitter’ is a concept I can’t relate to (see previous sentence). I just have the freedom to speak my mind. Cause I don’t give a fuck.”

When another fan asked if Bischoff would work for AEW with creative control, Bischoff wrote the following…

“I know too many people who are trapped (taking the money and scared shitless to walk away from it) in that joyless shithole. Not a chance. Life is too short and has too much to offer.”
