Exclusive: Paul Heyman and Eric Bischoff Named WWE Executive Directors, Will Run WWE TV

[Grim]

you think Eric will be on TV?

Most likely. He's a good character, but I'd be pretty tired of him if he was heel.

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Easy E ain't gonna ba(y)b(a)y.

I also don't think Eric will be on screen much. Heyman might still because of Brock.

So this on screen shit or is this legit backstage roles.

Being reported by their mark partners and website makes me iffy on that

Seems legit backstage roles but I feel that too, looks like WWE just wants to let people know they're trying to shake things up. But I wouldn't be surprised if Bischoff had an on screen role later this year

 

[Deezy]

Not sure what Bischoff or Heyman would actually bring to the table, not exactly two guys who are entrenched in today's pop culture zeitgeist imo.

That's what WWE is missing atm, they book old and are stuck in a bubble.

 

[Shane]

I hope to fuck he doesn't become an on screen character.

Same, I mean I don't really have anything against him being an on-screen character bc I've always enjoyed him as one, even in TNA, but the man himself said he thinks authority figures are outdated. I just wouldn't really feel it rn so I'm hoping he stays behind the scenes.

 

[Deezy]

No more authority figures......Joe Silva wasn't booking fights on the fly for UFC.

It's deader than the Nielsen ratings metric.
