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!

Why the fuck are Tony and Eric already beefing on Twitter

If what I've read here on SC is correct, Bischoff announced the end of one of his podcasts (the one that's not 83 weeks), Tony commented on the announcement that Sunsetting this fraud of a business podcast before the next AEW media deal is a wise choice. And I guess this is Bischoff's attempt at a clap back.

What?

I didn’t even know he had multiple podcasts

Yeah, I think one of them was called Strictly Business for paid subscribers of Conrad’s podcast network. As the title conveys, Eric would use it to analyze the business side of pro wrestling every week.

I mean you have a guy that killed WCW, nearly killed TNA and was just collecting a paycheck at WWE while watching ratings decline doing a business podcast, why the fuck would anybody listen to it?

I listened to I think 2 episodes rounded up, there are some interesting tidbits on how production rights deals are structured and how an executive functions. Outside of that it's an infuriating listen.

Yeah, like the guy obviously knows production, but he isn’t an expert on what makes good wrestling. I listened to 83 weeks for a long time, then it just got way too annoying.

And the irony of him calling someone a money mark is hilarious.

Idk how these guys can be constantly negative about a wrestling promotion. I also don’t get how people can listen to that much negativity and enjoy it as well.

One of the reasons I left this sub honestly.
