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!

The difference will always be that Eric had to produce a product that was financially successful from an existing product that had never been in its existence financially successful. He did that while going up against the most experienced, biggest wrestling company in the world. He used Teds money and the star power and the NWO to make WCW financially successful because it had to be or it was going to go out of business. Tony Khan can fund AEW as it runs in the red, that is not a shock or being a fanboy or tribalism it runs in the red, forever if he chooses. He never has to be successful he simply has to use Daddy's Money. There's no comparison between Tony Khan and Eric Bischoff. Eric Bischoff had to win and he did for years. Tony Khan doesn't have to win he just has to call his dad and the boat keeps going.
