Eric Bischoff has moved away from the wrestling business and into the finance business.
The former WCW boss hasn’t been involved in a wrestling company since being let go from WWE in 2019. However, he has hosted podcasts about his time in wrestling for years, alongside Conrad Thompson. This has helped lead Bischoff to a new career path.
Eric Bischoff, best known for his wrestling career, has transitioned into a new role as a Mortgage Loan Officer. He revealed this shift during an interview with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated, where he shared that he is now working for his podcast co-host, Conrad Thompson.
The WWE Hall of Famer claimed that he routinely gets calls from wrestling fans during his work. This has helped him “extend my wrestling career”, and finds the work extremely rewarding.
Conrad Thompson noted that Eric Bischoff doesn’t need the job, and does it for the love of it.
Eric Bischoff Helps Wrestling Fans
Bischoff also noted that wrestling often comes up on his calls, so it feels like he has been able to extend his wrestling career.
“Wrestling comes up quite a bit on my calls. It’s almost allowed me to extend my wrestling career.” Eric Bischoff said. “It’s wrestling fans responding to Conrad’s advertisements, and if a wrestling fan is calling about a new home or a refinance, they’re familiar with me.
“They’re excited to get a call from me. I’m excited to help them. If I can save someone money every month just by seeing the bigger financial picture, that’s extremely rewarding. It’s made a very profound impression on me.” Put yourself in my shoes. I’m cold-calling someone about their mortgage, and they’re already excited to speak. Then the process begins of trying to help them achieve their goals. That’s not work, that’s a joy. That’s an honor, and that makes it so easy to put in the work.”
