Originally posted by MeltzerAs has been teased by WWE, Eric Bischoff is in Oklahoma City and will be appearing on tonight's Raw.
As of a few minutes ago, his only spot is to plug his new autobiography. There are no creative plans for him going forward and nobody was even really aware he'd be coming. Of course I was given the caveat, "things always change on the fly but that's the idea as of now."
"I have as much authority as the Pope, I just don't have as many people who believe it."
Funny, I hated the guy when he was in charge of WCW. since he was with WWE, I've really come to appreciate his on- air character. I am very much looking forward to seeing him on TV.
Rusty Shackleford is just the name he uses to order Pizza with.
Yeah, I liked him as GM as well, and was disappointed when he lost the "trial" that got him fired. He's someone that you can say, ok, he's in charge, unlike Coach, who gives no aura of authority.
To paraphrase the part in the interveiw with Eric thats on WWE.com: I am only on-screen talent, but when I am asked I will give my point of view regarding the direction. Go read it (dont expect a link. I am lazy)
