WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff has ignited controversy with his scathing critique of wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer, branding him a “con man and a fraud.”
The contentious remarks were made in an episode of Bischoff’s podcast “83 Weeks,” where he addressed Meltzer’s historical criticism of WCW‘s product in the late 90s. In a no-holds-barred commentary, Bischoff expressed his evolving perspective on Meltzer’s work, stating:
And I’ve gotten to the point now where when I read the stupid s**t I read again from guys like Dave Meltzer. Now it’s actually entertaining. I’ve gone from being angry and resentful to being entertained and humoured.
Bischoff’s comments took a confrontational turn as he articulated his stance on exposing Meltzer, asserting:
And it also gives me great content because there’s nothing I love more than exposing idiots like Dave Meltzer and proving to the world, along with guys like Bruce Pritchard and Jim Cornette and so many others who are just willing to tell the truth and expose Dave Meltzer for the con man and the fraud that he accuses other people. But it really is Dave Meltzer- as a con man and a fraud.
Which WWE Hall Of Famer Does Eric Bischoff Think Was The Worst Member Of The NWO?
Eric Bischoff said that he thinks fellow WWE Hall of Famer Ted DiBiase was the worst member of the nWo. Bischoff recalled that the faction led by former WWE Superstars had some great members but that the “Million Dollar Man” Ted DiBiase was just a bad fit for the group and that had nothing to do with DiBiase’s character just that he wasn’t right for that group.
