Bischoff is going to AEW, and the fall of WCW will be recreated in short order.

I had a loaf of bread that lasted longer than Easy E did.

Wonder if this is Vince, Fox putting the pressure on Vince, or a combo of both? Fox basically has WWE by the balls with this tv deal, but if they’re trying to micro manage Vince’s micro managing, well it may not end well for Smackdown.

If you have bread more than 4 months you probably shouldn't eat it.

Bruce Prichard has replaced Eric Bischoff as executive director of Fox professional wrestling series “Friday Night SmackDown,” WWE said on Tuesday. Former WCW boss Bischoff has been let go from WWE, a person with knowledge of his status tells TheWrap, after he served less than four months at the blue brand’s top post.

I know the pool of talent for those with experience in wrestling creative is rather small, but maybe they fact that they keep cycling through the same circle of guys is part of the reason the product is so stale.

According to all reports Bischoff never really did anything. He certainly wasn't involved in creative.

Pritchard (read: Brother Love) was Undertaker's manager at the start of 'Taker's WWF career

Fiend Bray Wyatt was "drafted" to SD on Friday

Pritchard to book Wyatt to the stars

What’s the over/under on the number of times he pulls the Brother Love shite out of the attic again?

It wasn’t particularly good in 1989 and has aged even worse.

Hiring Eric in the first place made no sense.

I think Bischoff learned from his mistakes. Plus AEW has more talent than WWE

AEW wouldn't sign him. Bischoff brings nothing to the table.

If Bruce Brother Love hires on Jim Cornette, wrestling could be fun again. Is PS Hayes still at WWE?

Cornette works for NWA. Michael Hayes is still with WWE.

Cornette is afraid to fly. He can drive to NWA shows.
