The following are questions Eric Bischoff answered on his Facebook page:
Fan "Dee West" vs Eric Bischoff:
Dee West: First of all let me start off by saying I'm a die hard wrestling fan, BUT I don't agree with nor do I like Hulk Hogan and his goons (including you) in TNA. Don't get me wrong I was a Hulk Hogan fan like millions of people are, but I don't fall in line and think that he is gods gift to wrestling. Unlike most people (Yourself, Dixie Carter) I recognize what Hulk Hogan has done wrong in wrestling. I'm not afraid to call him on his bulls***. Hogan is there to quote take TNA to the top of the industry that we all love by pushing the younger guys. First off that is a crock of s**.
How do make room to push the younger talent in TNA past the veterans that are already there when you bring in useless talent like The Nasty Boys, who haven't done anything in memory since 1994. Then you bring in Scott Hall and Sean Waltman, two guys who can't even put the Vodka and the Valium down long enough for one t.v. taping. If you think that Hulk Hogan is in TNA to help TNA grow then you my friend are sadly mistaken. Hogan has done great things in the past granted, but lets not overlook all that he has done that has been horrible. I heard Ric Flair say that everything Hogan touches turns to gold. I beg the differ. All that glitters isn't gold. Take a look at this.
Hulk Hogan's failures
1.WCW
2.XWF
3.American Gladiators
4.Brooke Hogans singing career
5.His marriage to Linda
If Hulk Hogan cared so much about the well being of TNA then where was he in 2002 when Jeff Jarrett smashed a guitar over his head? That left an opening for Hogan to jump to TNA, did he? No. Why because TNA at the time didn't have the financial backing that they do now so that Hogan could use it for his personal playground and not take a financial loss himself if TNA happened to fail. He did it in WCW he is doing it now. How in the hell are you helping someone by being paid to call the shots? Being paid to make yourself look better, being paid to have another shot at the lime light because you can't realize that time has passed you by. Hulk Hogan I thank you for all that you have done in the past, but your damn near 60 years old. Step down save us and yourself from the disaster that was, The Finger Poke of Doom, That was The Giant Falling off the top of the arena and coming back to defeat you for the tittle later that night, That was the Yetti,Zodiac,Shark Man and everything else you came up with. I mean this is your last chance to dance. I mean unless your going to go on national tv again and cry about how you were on the verge of committing suicide just to gain sympathy. I don't expect you to respond to this because I personally don't think that you have the guts to do so. You will probably sweep it under the rug like you have done with the rest of your failures.
Sorry if I offened people, but I'm on here to speak the truth. I'm not a kiss and a Hogan Mark like most of you are. I keep it 100. If Eric Bischoff has the guts he will want to read what I have to say. You can get at my personal email address

I'm calling Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff's bluff. I will personally fly myself down to Orlando to have a meeting with Hogan face to face.
Kevin Chuff: I agree with DEE west on Everything he said and i will go to flordia with him and call out hogan and Bischoff. Push the younger talent!
Dee West: Thank you Kevin someone had to say something, I just wasn't afraid to. I say whats real and I will continue to say whats real until Bischoff takes notice and acknowledges what I have to say. If he really cares about what the fans think then he will.
Eric Bischoff: Dee, you are typical of the type of internet wrestling fan that gives internet wrestling fans a bad name. You don't speak for the majority of wrestling fans, in fact the millions of people watching at home have decidedly different opinions than you based on ratings and research. You have a right to your opinion, but seriously, don't flatter yourself by thinking that anyone other than yourself and a few other internet geeks care about your opinion!
Dee West: Oh joy Eric Bischoff is online. Now what I said is going to be not an opinion but a fact that Erich Bischoff isn't going to acknowledge what I have to say.
Eric Bischoff: Thats because your a douche bag!
Dee West: If Eric Bischoff is such a geunius then why is he noted as the moron that said Austin wasn't marketable? Oh please don't fire me over the phone
Brandon Michael Surdock: At the timing he was right. Lets be honest. The Pope Sucked when he worked for WWE. Now with a new gimmick he's a rising star. Timing/creative is everything. You think the undertaker started out as the undertaker. No it took him years to find the best gimmick that fitted him. Almost all your top guys today/in the past have been in different promotions under different gimmicks. If the company doesn't have anything for them at that moment then that wrestler isn't marketable for them. If Eric didn't let Austin go u would never had a Stone Cold Steve Austin. If Vince didn't let Razor Ramon and Diesel go you would never had a NWO
Eric Bischoff: Brandon, the same could be said for many of the top stars. It took Steve Austin 10+ years to find his "character" and much had to do with timing and circumstances. The Rock didn't hit right away and neither do most characters. Try and name 5 top stars over the last 15 years who hit it big (consistent PPV main eventers) who were in the business for less than 10 years and who ended up in the characters they started out in. Good comments and thanks for the post. EB
