"Loved competing against you" - WCW legend comments on Vince McMahon retiring from WWE

Vince McMahon has retired from WWE and a long-time rival has wished the 76-year-old well in his retirement.

Eric Bischoff and WCW took McMahon and WWE to the limit during the Monday Night Wars. Bischoff has since launched a podcast called 83 Weeks, a nod to when Monday Nitro outraded WWE RAW in the ratings competition. The Monday Night Wars came to an end in March 2001 when Vince purchased WCW. WWE won the war and Bischoff started appearing for the promotion the following year.

After it was announced that Vince was stepping away from WWE, Eric Bischoff took to Twitter to send his respect to his former rival. Eric said that he loved competing against Vince and will always respect the business that he has built.

"Loved competing against you, and will always respect thee business you built," Bischoff wrote.
