Yes, WCW did die 5 years ago, but it doesn't mean people can't reminisce. People enjoy talking about things they loved and bringing up fun new ideas for this or that coming back.
But you don't need to be an ass about it. These boards are here for people to talk about Bischoff however they want to. They don't need you stomping on their heads for it.
Yes, Bischoff did a lot of cruddy things in his time with WCW, but he also did a lot of great things. The numbers prove that. He brought WCW up out of the gutter and gave WWF/E a run for the ratings.
Ultimately it was mostly Bischoff who brought the company down too, but it had a great run while it lasted and gave wrestling fans two wonderful & competing shows to watch and love.
Bischoff has his good and bad, as does eveybody in this world. We don't need you pouring your bad attitude down on our heads if we want to think back/talk about/remember the good old days/play 'what if' and the like. Get over yourself. If you don't like what you read here, then don't read it!

I accept that WCW died 5 years ago but WWE never has been and never will be better than WCW. The only reason they beat WCW is because WCW was managed poorly and WWE took its product to the lowest level possible which caught peoples attention.

Bishcoff did well for himself in WCW considering unlike Vince he didnt have dozens and dozens and dozens of experienced people working for him 24/7. Eric deserves the credit he gets.
Its not fair to blame Eric though, even when he was still in charge, WCW was doing better before Russo took over. Not to mention the ratings were still going back and forth. -

The blame should also go to Hogan and Nash, no disrespect to them as I am a huge Nash fan, but they held back many great talented people like Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, Chris Jericho, Booker T, Scott Steiner, Dean Malenko, Perry Saturn, it was always nWo, it was always Hogan, in way they were selfish, and they had "creative control" over their characters.

Bischoff is an idiot. He loves to toute his own horn by constantly going on his pathetic nostalgia of beating WWF for over a year. Yeah, and then they got completely and utterly buried for the next three until it was ran out of business despite being backed by a billionaire. Yes, even with his tremendous and "unbeatable" household names.
He likes to act as though he was a creative genius. The fact is that, no he was not. He did some really smart things for the business, but if he was such a creative genius the WCW would not have become the joke it did that WWF scored over twice as many viewers then.
Bischoff can screw, I am tired of that pompous idiot speaking so arrogantly about his "contribution" to wrestling. The contribution so tremendous that he eventually was just another name on Vince's payroll. -
