–Take a trip down memory lane and check out the following interview excerpt from Eric Bischoff, where he shares his opinion on TNA Wrestling prior to signing with the company alongside Hulk Hogan this week. The interview excerpt is from The Sun out of the UK and was posted earlier this year:
What was the thinking behind doing CCW? Surely you and Hulk could have made a lot of money by going to TNA or even going back to work for WWE?
Neither one of us were interested in TNA. It’s a small organisation that doesn’t have very much vision…There was nothing exciting there for Hulk or myself.
Have TNA approached you at all about working for them? What would be your advice to them if they want become a true challenger to the WWE like WCW was?
There’s no vision for that company…They are people who have never been to the dance. They’ve never been a part, really, of any of the decision-making processes that led to the success of the industry. For me to sit down and say “listen guys, this is what you have to do to be successful” would be like telling a three-year-old how to fly an aeroplane. You can try all you want, they’re never going to get it.
