McMahon giving Raw booking power to Eric Bischoff???????

[HAMMERHEAD]

That's right kids, Rumors have it that Vince is so desperate for ratings that he would give his old nemisis Eric Bischoff full booking power for Raw. Now is it me or does this seem to be part of Bischoff's grand scheme to take over the WWE or is it just another genius move by Vinnie Mac.

[johnbravo]

It sounds good to me with vince standing over him and eric out to prove himself i think it could only mean more gooder wrestling for us viewers. If i were vince i would give anything a try because th WWE is a sinking ship

Bischoff only ever had one good idea, and it wasn't his originally, he just had the money to do it well.

Anything besides the "HHH-Gets-to-Live-Out-His-Lifelong-Wrestling-Wet-Dreams" Show would be a great improvement. As long as it doesn't involve bringing back Hogan for a title run.

...silent, but violent.

Really, at this point, this is GOOD news.

Cause you can't possibly convince me that Bischoff could book RAW worse than it is being done today.

With him in charge, at least there's a chance that the ex-WCW guys like Steiner or Booker might, you know, actually get a decent push.

If we all know Bischoff, and I know that we all do, he still has the hate in the back of his mind Vince buying WCW. What better way to get back at him than to ruin RAW? I personally think that if this is true, and if Bischoff wants a job, he will make WWE better than what Vince is already doing, or he'll turn the tables, sink the ratings and make WWE cancel RAW, which I don't believe will be happening, but it is a possibility.

[TheGameHHH]

I completly agree with Se7en.

Spyderman are you an idiot, Bischoff didnt own WCW nor did he even work for them when the company was purchased.
I think this is a good idea for the most part. It will give someone who is definetly not a vinnie mac yes man the power to run a show seperate from what you get on smackdown. From what i have read Bischoff has kept to himself mostly and avoided the political fiascos. This should help extend the brand extension and give RAW a feeling all of its own.
But as i said the WWE functions best when there is a good tag team division, if i were bischoff i would build that first.
Plus i think w/ Bischoff taking over they could run an angle of Bischoff sick of HHH's political power and hes out to stop it, which would give HHH a run at the top one more time before letting him go out into the sunset and jobbing him out to jericho, making jericho the top heel

He could make it much worse. He'd make it more like WCW and then maybe we'd have 2 matches a night.

let me point out why Bischoff booking is probably the best idea they've had since reuniting the Dudley Boyz again..

how many concecutive weeks was Nitro #1 over Raw again...exactly

Raw broke that record.

And no credible site has reported that Bischoff has booking power over Raw.

Fallon, If you go to wrestlevenom.com it is reported that Vince is considering it. I have been using this source for my info for about2 years and they have never steered me wrong.

[spyderman28]

Knowledeged_one, if only my brain was as big as yours, then I wouldn't have made that assumption and wouldn't sound stupid now...thank you for your humiliation.

[Se7en]

He could make it much worse. He'd make it more like WCW and then maybe we'd have 2 matches a night.

We already get about a half hour of Trips every week, what could be much worse?

As it is, we get a shitload of trips, and maybe 2 matches over 5 minutes.

The rest are (often) stupid skits or matches lasting 4 minutes or less.

Bischoff could make things better. This is all hypothetical, because no one knows if he will actually get any booking power, but if he does....I'm inclined to believe that the old Bischoff (the competitive Eric) may shine through and do his best to put out an outstanding product....as a way in which to rub it in Vince's face.
