    If bischoff was smart he shoulda let dx in. Wwf cameras wouldn’t have been allowed in the building and it woulda forced wcw to film it. The ratings woulda killed. So bischoff was an idiot

    It’s not that he did anything for WWE is the fact that he lit a fire under their butts and made them have to really think outside the box and had it not been for him doing what he was doing attitude would’ve been a whole lot different and maybe wouldn’t even have happened so he might not have created the attitude era his product made them go in that direction

    My question for him after this statement, would have been… Why not just open the garage door and let DX in? What would’ve happened if you did that and proposed a match between DX and the NWO? Put DX on WCW TV and force Vinces hand.

      Gee, if only Bischoff had spent several minutes on an anecdote which explained that reason perfectly clearly, right?
      R-r-right?
      Bischoff should probably do an interview with Inside the Ropes to explain how, huh? He could even Shoot on Finding Out DX Invaded WCW....
      Ah, but, if only that would happen... we can only dream about that eternal, unfathomable mystery...

    Remember the seeing the 'DX invasion' and it looked cringe, made the thin WWF roster look small with DX not even aloud in the building, it was as silly as The Elite's reboot of it when they sold tshirts in a WWE parking lot.
    People forget how garbage DX looked after HBK left and HHH wasn't main event tier yet.

    Keep trying to tell ppl that Bischoff is a hack. Theres a cottage industry of wrestlers that did better in WWE than they ever would have in WCW after he took over. The only reason he made it was b/c Vince refused to change. Once he did it was over relatively quickly. He is a product of the sleazy environment that he was hired into.

      Might want to learn what terms mean before trying to use them in public platforms.
      Lol, "cottage industry." Ah yes, I too remember when RAW matches were filmed from the private residences of every wrestler who each had a wrestling ring in their houses, presided over by the three referees the WWE had, who could all magically teleport between every wrestler's home located all over the country, and yet filmed on a weekly, 1 to 3 hour show....😂

    I still find his story to be wrong. I've heard him say before that he was right there when they came to the gate. PLUS, he couldn't have been in the ring. DX was there early, it was clearly bright out. Nitro was at 8pm start time. His timeline is off.

    • @GrymmSoul
      @GrymmSoul 2 дні тому

      You can't have that both ways.
      "DX was early so he couldn't be in the ring...but also the show had already started at 8, hurrhurr derrrrp!"
      .... So, in other words, Bischoff totally could've been in the ring, DX didn't show up early, and there are two entire seasons of the year when there's still daylight at 8 pm...and the DX invasion angle happened during the first of the two, LOL!
      Did you want to hilariously contradict yourself a few more times in a public platform? That you "still find his story wrong," says infinitely more about you, than it does about Bischoff's factual anecdote....which is self-deprecating...and would not have gained, nor accomplished, anything for Bischoff or (retroactively) WCW if it had been a lie (and those details can't possibly be confused, so it's not like Bischoff is wildly misremembering how it all happened.
      Not to mention that RAW and Nitro were both filmed live by the time the DX invasion angle happened....that everyone involved has stated that DX showed up while WCW was filming...that WCW fans at Nitro came pouring out of The Scope to see DX...and the fact that, you know, IT"S ALL BEEN RECORDED AND SHOWN IN MULTIPLE WWE DOCUMENTARIES AND CLIPPED ALL OVER UA-cam. Hahahahahaha!
