The man that almost knocked Vince McMahon off his perch during the Monday Night Wars shocked the world when he turned up at a WWE event in 2002. Eric Bischoff, during his tenure as WCW’s head honcho, turned the company’s fortunes around and brought his own vision to the organisation.

So when Vince McMahon needed to shake things up in WWE, he turned to his former arch-nemesis, whom he once challenged to a brawl in a parking lot! Vince knew that in order to create competition, he had to bring in the master instigator.

Bischoff held his position as the General Manager of RAW from July ’02 to December ’05, and after a mock trial was fired by Vince McMahon. In reality, Bischoff decided to take time off from the business to work on his book “Controversy Creates Cash”, which debuted at #16 on the New York Times Best Seller list.
