On this episode of First Match we go all the way back to the beginning with the former president of WCW and the creator of the NWO, Eric Bischoff!
From a list of pre-wrestling careers that spanned from being a print model to landscaping but NOT owning a butcher shop, to teaming up with Sony Onoo, Eric's journey to pro wrestling was a fun ride!
He sold for the AWA until one day he was thrown in front of a camera and the rest is history! We talk about how to be a good announcer, how some rules are made to be broken, wrestling Larry Zbyszko with a fractured knee, who he digs in the industry today and the fact that $20 bucks is $20 bucks, you don't want to miss this episode!
Make sure you listen until the very end to find out who's up next week!
