83 Weeks with Eric Bischoff

On this LIVE edition of 83 Weeks, Eric Bischoff and host Conrad Thompson pull back the curtain on the business of professional wrestling past, present, and controversial.
Eric breaks down the science behind booking major Saturday night specials like Clash of the Champions, explaining why timing, competition, and audience behavior matter more than fans realize. He also dives into the real challenges of tape delayed programming, using AEW Grand Slam as a case study in how momentum can shift when spoilers hit.
Bischoff tackles the ongoing fan criticism surrounding creative, making the case that the process constantly evolves and why laying blame at the feet of Triple H oversimplifies a much bigger machine. He doesn't hold back when addressing Dave Meltzer and the recent Brody King reporting controversy, offering his unfiltered take on how narratives get shaped and sometimes distorted.
Plus, Eric weighs in on the business realities behind Warner Bros. Discovery's minority stake in All Elite Wrestling, and the truth behind sluggish ticket sales for WrestleMania what's perception, what's strategy, and what's simply the modern marketplace at work.
