Wrestling Bios Presents - The Rise of Eric Bischoff in WCW
The WWE has always been known as the leader of professional wrestling. These days, when it comes to viewership, branding, licensing and profits, World Wrestling Entertainment is an absolute machine. In the mid 90s though, Eric Bischoff and WCW wanted to take on the WWE and knock Vince McMahon off the number 1 spot. While many people laughed at Eric's vision of running the best wrestling company in the United States, he shocked everyone when WCW began defeating the WWF in the Monday Night television ratings.
Eric Bischoff began his WCW career as a low broadcaster. He would conduct backstage interviews and generally do the jobs that the main commentators in WCW didn't want to do. When an oppurtunity arose, Eric Bischoff became the Excutive Producer of WCW. After landing this job, Eric Bischoff went on to create WCW Nitro, a TV programme that went head to head with WWF Raw on Monday Nights. With the creation of the nWo and a very entertaining undercard, Eric Bischoff's WCW became the number 1 wrestling brand in America.
