Update On Eric Bischoff and TNA
Posted by Larry Csonka on 11.02.2009
What’s the deal?
According to Pwinsider.com, Eric Bischoff was not at tonight's TNA Impact tapings. When Hulk Hogan's deal was announced last week, it was also announced that Bischoff-Hervey Entertainment would come on board with the company to help develop programming.

they shouldn't have even bothered announcing that any deals had been struck... They clearly don't care about the company.

Seriously, what IS the deal? Are we going to get a clip of Jarrett nailing Hogan with a guitar again or what???

wwe should just take a preemptive strike against tna.
wwe and usa do 3 hour raw specials and usa wants top protect wwe's ratings so why don't they just threaten to make raw a PERMANENT 3 hour show to scare tna from possibly trying to go on monday nights.
bitchoff is nothing without ted turner's money. even bret hart said eric was a clueless jackass who had one good idea, the nwo and ran it into the ground.

Do any of you hear the sounds of millions of crickets chirping?

It's been said by people in the business for years that Bischoff is a bad business-man.
I guess we'll see.

Bret Hart NEVER said such a thing. Read his and Eric's books. He got along great with Uncle Eric. He has said Eric suffered from burn out and too many backstage politics. Thats hardly calling someone a jackass.

Well, if you would actually do some fucking research instead of hating, you would know that Vince is against three hour Raws. That would make it HARDER for them to keep ratings. And, like we've been saying a million times, if you were a true wrestling fan, you would want TNA to grow. Vince has also said this.

No Daryl Hall eh? I always thought they should have paired Scott Hall up with one of the Oates brothers. In the 80s, telling people Hall & Oates were going for the tag titles would have been a license to print money. I tell you what.

Why would he be backstage? His job is to shop TNA Programming around not run the company or anything. Pretty sure he's not supposed to be backstage anyway.
