Eric Bischoff reveals change he wanted to make in WCW
In 1993, Eric Bischoff replaced Bill Watts as the Executive Producer of WCW. Upon coming into that role, Eric Bischoff was handed a company that was going down the drain, with bad creative and strategy at its helm.
In this new position, Eric Bischoff found that one of the things that WCW was doing wrong was the house shows. The house shows saw the company lose a lot of money every time that they went out. When Eric Bischoff pointed this out, he became unpopular in the company. Bischoff wanted to shut down house shows for a time before restarting when their TV product was more popular and was more demanded.
When Eric Bischoff came into that position, Tony Schiavone and Jim Ross were the favorites, but he was appointed as the Executive producer instead of them.
