Eric Bischoff On Monday Night Mayhem

[xtremebadass]

Money In The Bank Ladder Match

HBK Shawn Michaels vs. Shelton Benjamin vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Matt Hardy vs. Edge vs. Rob Van Dam

 

[Kaptain KnicKy]

Mine would be (with two ECW wrestlers)...

Benoit
Gregory Helms
Shelton Benjamin
Edge
Hardcore Holly
CM Punk

Basically took one more experienced competitor from each brand, and tried to place in a more edgier, newer guy with the other. Benoit and Edge really proved themselves to me in the first MITB match, and Im dissapointed Benoit hasnt gotten into another one since. Benjamin deserved to be in this one, he continues to get one incredible spot in, the last two matches, and really suits the environment well. Helms seems like the kind of guy who you could see winning it (not this year), and he also has they edgy/high flying side to him, though it's not blown out of proportion like some others (Hardys). Holly Im not too sure, but lookin over the ECW roster, he's prolly the only one, along with Punk as to who Id like to see in this match, ever.

-Bischoff said he heard no conversations regarding running a TNA show near Atlanta during Wrestlemania Weekend.

-Eric thinks its odd that Vince McMahon is removing wrestling from his company's brand. He calls wrestling its own unique drama. He said wrestling fans pride themselves on their knowledge and are as loyal as any other sports fan. Eric understands why Vince is changing his brand but he doesn't agree with it. He is proud to be in pro wrestling and he would scream his love for it.

-Bischoff talks about character development. He mishears a fan's question and talks about the wrestlers movesets. He thinks each wrestler should have unique or signature moves of their own.

-Eric said he was impressed with Chris Daniels when he came to TNA and was surprised when he left the company. He said everyone expected Daniels back and put him over as a great character.

-Eric Bischoff doesn't think Bill Goldberg will be in TNA. Eric doesn't think Bill's heart has ever been into pro wrestling. Both WCW and Goldberg benefited from their relationship. Eric says the wrestling business is fine without Bill Goldberg.

-Eric isn't an advocate for Triple Threat Matches. He personally doesn't enjoy 3-Ways and Cage Matches. He enjoys 1-on-1 matches where two guys play out their story. He knows alot of people who like the unpredictably and combinations and the art with 3-way matches.

-They talk about Jeff Hardy! What could Jeff Hardy offer TNA if or when he returns? Bischoff said he is still angry at Jeff Hardy because of the situation and what he would say to him would be counterproductive.

-Bischoff doesn't have first-hand knowledge of the Australian TV Deal negotiations but he knows Australia is a very important market to TNA. Eric says getting TV back there is very important to them.

-Eric is always excited to see other TNA Programming appear on other networks. Being involved in MTV allows them to reach a younger and more diverse audience.

-Eric wasn't going to try and sell PPVs. He said some of their PPVs have been great while others not so much. He said Victory Road's results was because of one individual and not the company. He said TNA tries and at Lockdown there will be a roster full of guys trying. He said if he was in Las Vegas he would bet that Lockdown would be a good PPV.

Couple of times Hardy came up you can tell by his comments he isn't to happy with him. Besides that nothing to major from the show.

As bullshit as it was that Hardy showed up like that they still shouldn't have put him out there and should have done a last minute change putting someone in his place.
