Update On Eric Bischoff Being 'Done' With Pro Wrestling

Recent reports suggested that Eric Bischoff was ‘done’ with professional wrestling, but the outspoken former WCW Senior Vice President has set the record straight.

Speaking with the Daily Star, Bischoff said such reports were wide of the mark:

“The wrestling media were sloppy as it were. I was asked a question and made a comment and it was taken out of context. The context was ‘Eric, do you think you'll ever be involved full time in the wrestling business? Do I ever want to run a wrestling company, or own a wrestling company, or work full time for any wrestling company?’ My answer is absolutely not. That's never going to happen again. That is in my rear view mirror, as I like to say.

“But that doesn't mean that I won't make appearances from time to time. I have been doing these things for the last five years – if there's an opportunity to do what I refer to as a one off or just simple appearances or something like that, of course, I'll do that. Full time will never happen again. Somehow that got written into a headline that made it seem like I retired from wrestling forever. You could have said that eight years ago. I guess that's the wrestling media,” said Bischoff.
