Eric Bischoff On The “Controversy” Around Goldberg Squashing Brock Lesnar At Survivor Series (Video)





Sports Illustrated’s
120 Sports video app has released it’s latest “Controversial Story Of The Week” segment featuring myself and former WCW President Eric Bischoff on their YouTube account.

This week I ask Eric about the “controversial” decision to have Goldberg beat Brock Lesnar in 86 seconds at Survivor Series. You can find some of his comments transcribed below.

EB: The fact anyone thinks this is controversial surprises me. I would think that as smart as everyone likes to think they are that they would have figured it out by now. That they, WWE, have really created a storyline with anticipation and excitement over a match-up that nobody thought they could have. I think it’s great. I think they did a great job. You texted me like minutes after that finish. You texted me and said, “WTH did I just see?” That is exactly what the business needs right now. It’s exactly what that match-up needs right now. You’ve got to make people go, “Woah! What was that?!” To get their attention. I think it was perfect.
