The audience is always there, but wrestling has always had a tough time having an audience that will always be there, that’s been the hurdle” 

Eric Bischoff Calls out Triple H?

Bischoff also had quite a bit to say about performers in modern pro-wrestling, and how nobody is committing to their characters. 

We don’t really have any heels. People play the part of a heel, play the part of a baby face. But there’s nobody out there that people really genuinely hate and want to see get their a** kicked.

He also took a dig at Triple H, and his days as a performer in the WWE. Go back and watch Triple H’s matches and compare to when he was a baby face to a heel, there aren’t any differences, he was the same character as a heel and a baby face,

If you’re going to be a heel, be a f***ing heel. Invest in it, enjoy it, live it. Learn to suck the life out of every moment so that the baby face you’re in the ring with gets the benefit of it

He had a huge problem with how wrestlers commit to becoming a heel, one who is hated by all audiences.

He had a special appreciation for AEW Superstar MJF in this regard.This MJF dude, come on, I would’ve loved to work with that guy. He’s so good. What he delivers on camera is magical as a heel, very few people are capable of pulling it off. He loves heat.

Bischoff took a shot at Triple H, and showed how different MJF was, in terms of being a fully committed heel.
