Eric Bischoff Says CM Punk Is Worse Than Hulk Hogan

CM Punk has been the talk of the professional wrestling world over the last couple of weeks, with news of the fact that a deal to bring him back for the debuting AEW Collision show could be up in the air. Eric Bischoff has shared his views on the Punk situation, and has even stated that he is ‘worse’ than Hulk Hogan.

On his Strictly Business podcast, Bischoff gave his two cents on the whole drama involving Punk, Ace Steel and more. Bischoff initially spoke about the fact that the Steel situation should not get in the way of a new show.

"Just because he's a confidant of CM Punk's? Why is he allowed to jeopardize the network premiere of a brand-new show? Are you f—ing kidding me? People say I'm just being negative when I refer to the dysfunction within the infrastructure and the business side of AEW, but this [is a good example]."

Bischoff would go on to slam Punk for what he did at the AEW All Out 2022 press conference, and went on to compare him unfavourably to Hulk Hogan.

"All these hardcore wrestling fans and Punk himself is so anti-Hogan because [they think] he's selfish and whatnot. Punk's worse!" 

It is still up in the air whether CM Punk and Tony Khan will have settled on terms to bring him back into the for Collision, or whether plans will be thrown out of the window due to disagreements.
