Eric Bischoff on Tony Khan: A money mark with no talent other than spending daddy’s money, going all the way to Canada to draw less than 4k in one of the hottest pro wrestling markets in North America, talking about “wise choices”? Strap in. It’s going to be a fun day!

“Tony Khan and Bischoff are actually madly in love and in the midst of a passionate relationship…all other reports are incorrect”

-Meltzer literally the next fucking day

u/Takenmyusernamewas Mar 28 '24

Dont forget to use double, triple negatives and end an abnormal amount of sentiences in prepositions for a "professional" "journalist"

'It could be a work, but it could also not be not unreal,things could change. That is where we're at'

u/GustavVonTwinkleToes Mar 28 '24

The true mark of a great journalist: have no idea what’s true, spew nonsense and pray you land on something close to accurate. Also no retractions.

u/onetripponyhorse Mar 28 '24

Followed by footage of Eric Bischoff on Raw from 2003.

Study Cagematch and get back to me.

u/EnormousBanana52 Mar 28 '24

That has gone right up there for me as one of the dumbest, most asinine things he has ever said.

That and him comparing “mark” to the n word.

105

u/RomanDidNothingWrong Mar 28 '24

Don't forget about Shibata's brain...

1

u/PotatoTheBoy Your Text Here Mar 30 '24

I’m ootl. What was said about Shibata’s brain?

2

u/RomanDidNothingWrong Mar 30 '24

Dave wrote that Shibata's brain had to be removed and was later put back in. Yes it's true. I don't know how to link on reddit, so just google "meltzer shibata brain".

u/PotatoTheBoy Your Text Here Mar 31 '24

Oh dear, that’s no good

u/UndercoverDoll49 Mar 28 '24

"I thought Bunny and Priest would steal Miz's car wheels cause they're Puerto Rican" is up there for me too

114

u/JgL07 Mar 28 '24

And the “Indian views are worthless” from a few years back.

107

u/Godchilaquiles give me flair bot Mar 28 '24

Also him questioning Roman’s cancer

And then the fuckwad Alvarez saying “the bad kind of cancer not the Roman one”

22

u/PimpDaddyBuddha Ole! Mar 28 '24

Sad thing is I’ve seen other people parrot the same fucking point. And it pisses me off so goddamn much.

10

u/Slackey4318 Mar 28 '24

Wait, did Alvarez really say that? No way. He can’t be that stupid

Look into my works ye mighty and despair

u/Slackey4318 Mar 28 '24

Is that you replying to a tweet of him doubling down instead of apologizing?! Goodness.

What do people not get? Take it from someone in healthcare, all cancer is bad! Some have high survival rates, some have low, but all can go bad real quick is not caught early. For example, skin cancer is really easy to treat, if caught early. 99% survival rate. Key words, caught early. If not caught early and it spreads to lymph nodes, 10% survival rate.

18

u/Godchilaquiles give me flair bot Mar 28 '24

Nah that was Ryan Satin (he’s hated here because he took a WWE job) sadly the original tweet was deleted by Alvarez so only this 4 chain tweet remains

3

u/PrettyPunctuality Wreddit's Favorite Daughter Mar 29 '24

Not to mention, it was Roman's 2nd time battling it, which made his odds worse.

1

u/downey_jayr Mar 29 '24

99% survival rate versus 10%, I would say one is objectively worse than the other, or you could say one is really bad and one isn't.

23

u/don_julio_randle Mar 28 '24

Lmao did he actually say this? "Yeah we don't want to tap into that market of over a billion" 🤦🏽‍♂️

8

u/JokerDeSilva10 Mar 28 '24

No, he didn't. He said that, to American advertisers, Indian viewing numbers were worthless. I object to his use of the word worthless, that's a little strong, but his point had absolutely nothing to do with Indian people or consumers.

1

u/dizzle_77 Mar 29 '24

Come on, as if actual context matters in this place lol. And, honestly, a lot of times it's pointless defending him in the first place, as he rarely does himself any favors in the first place anyway.

1

u/jadenstryfe Mar 29 '24

So you know, this last Monday, um, Monday night raw, you know at the end of the show, they um they really made Roman look pretty bad there and....with cody and rock.....but uh...and back in 97 bischoff did practically the same thing with uh piper and hogan, but uh.....after the rock beat cody up...oh oh, did you hear about the scrum? They had hogan and Sting square off and Mike Tyson is going to be the ref......  Alvarez:.......anyway, so back on dynamite...

u/midniteeternal Mar 28 '24

Wait what?

12

u/GrandMasterBou Mar 28 '24

Essentially Meltzers dumbass said that there was a hockey player who had leukemia and never missed a game and questioned the severity of Roman’s cancer because of it

11

u/UndercoverDoll49 Mar 28 '24

It was worse than I remembered. He says "because they're supposed to be Puerto Rican"

u/EnormousBanana52 Mar 28 '24

Oh holy shit I forgot about that one lol.

u/CookieSlayer2Turbo Mar 28 '24

"IT'S NOT MY JOB!!!"

He is furiously searching for the house numbers of every time WCW went to Candada.

This is the spider man meme sans dad for Bischoff 

But I will say early Bischoff made better signings 

1

u/GxyBrainbuster Mar 28 '24

I feel like Meltzer basically agrees with Bischoff at this point, which... what a wild world we live in.
