Bigger Heel during Attitude Era?

[Apoho Creed]

VS

As some of the Smarks Familia know one of the things I've been binging with the Coronavirus hitting the World is going back to the old days during the Attitude Era. Right now I'm in 1997 of WCW and good God is Eric Bischoff getting me in my feelings with me wanting to grab him through my Laptop Screen and beat on him. Vince I always thought was a damn excellent in his own right, and maybe it's because I was watching in an era where you flipped back, and forth between the two Shows and you missed things here and there from both. So alot Eazy Be's antics I've watched so far went missing from my mind, but damn his turn was just as great as McMahon's a few years later I feel.

Bischoff had me playing up that he was doing business for WCW when in fact he was doing sneaky business for the NWO, and it came out on blast when Riper knew before we even knew the audience that Bischoff was working for the NWO during a Nitro Show. I just wonder what would the NWO had done if Bischoff didn't join the group? I mean the NWO of course was white hot at the time, but Eric who was the guy in charge outside of Ted Turner as least it came off that way was the Icing on the Cake in my opinion. When you had a guy who could push and not push talent just like that, only wanting to see his guys get the spotlight made for some very...very interesting TV. I mean who could forget Flair returning and shooting on him telling him he hated his guts.

McMahon's turn I saw a little bit more obvious vs Bischoff because of what WWE was doing at the time especially by 1997. Vince had not liked his attitude of the talent and I say that as his Character not in real life, because he was enjoying the shit out of it. You had Bret Hart turning Heel(Attitude Era Watchthrough Thread Coming maybe..possibly..) and him having to deal with that, then you had Austin around the same time doing what he wanted, and saying what he wanted during a Weekly Show so the possibility of Vince saying I'm going to control this in my way was on it's way. Vince having his own group the Corporation/Ministry and being involved with breaking down all the Babyfaces for Years was so fun to watch. I mean come on Vince literally almost died when he was fell off a Steel Cage when facing Austin 1999 because he knew the importance of it and how it helped his business going forward seize control of the Wars between WCW and WWE.

So that is just some of my thoughts on this Battle of who was the Bigger Heel during the Attitude Era and I still don't know who to vote for ha.

Bishoff was too cool to win this IMO. Not to say he wasn't still good at being a heel but nah I think Vince wrote himself to be SO FUCKING EVIL that you can't compare Bischoff also didn't have the face foil in Austin either so that hurts him some.

This is so hard, like, I am a fan of Bischoff, but like Chris said, he wasn't that evil bastard like Vince was.

But, at the same time, if I remember 100% correctly he was kayfabe wise(As we know he was real wise lol) the one who was responsible for the nWo, correct? It's been a while since I did my watch through, and I was a kid during that time but I'm pretty sure he was the one who let them in and all that.... so that's points for him as he was the reason for the hostile takeover of WCW.

Both have great points for them that can honestly go in their favor.

Vince almost had his daughter forcefully married to The Undertaker for no apparent reason other than to make a fool out of the employee he could have just fired at any point and then write a restraining order for.

Man is a bigger heel.

This was the first thing that I thought of too so I was like "yep no question"

But yeah Vince was just evil af, and Bischoff and the nWo were way too cool to be as hated as Vince.

How is this even in question? Vince from 98-99 is probably the greatest heel work ever.
