Eric Bischoff didn’t last long in his role as Executive Director of Smackdown for WWE. Bischoff’s hiring was announced by WWE in June and he was gone from the company in October. He spoke to Konnan on the “Keepin it 100” podcast recently.
“My way of looking at the business is different,” Bischoff said on the show. “My approach to creative is probably significantly different and I just don’t think it was a good fit.”
Bischoff then talked about when he knew things weren’t working out between he and WWE.
“There was a moment or two I guess while I was there the first couple of months. I think the first month and a half in particular where I went home and I told my wife Laurie, do not fall in love, do not fall in love with the furniture, do not fall in love with anything you buy here. We came here in a 5×8 U-Haul trailer, we’re going to leave here in a 5×8 U-Haul trailer, we may be leaving sooner than you think. That thought crossed my mind early on and I was right.”
