RIP Ted Turner Without him buying JCP and turning it into WCW, we wouldn't have had any real challenge to the WWF, no Monday Night War and no nWo "I've been involved in the wrestling business since we started televising it back in '73... and it's a real pleasure to be really in it now"

Eric Bischoff talks AOL Time Warner merger: One of the most disastrous corporate mergers in merger history...It didn't just affect WCW, obviously it affected us, but it affected a lot of other companies. Look at CNN. CNN is a punchline. CNN is an infomercial channel. It's horrible what's happened to CNN because of leadership post Ted Turner. #HelwaniShow

Lee Cowan looks back at the outsized life and restless ambition of a true American original – a man who reshaped the media landscape, helped restore the American bison, and poured his fortune into conservation, philanthropy, and global causes.

Eric Bischoff is stepping way outside his executive comfort zone. In this SHOCKING look behind the curtain, the former WCW boss is actually getting in the ring to learn the mechanics of taking a flat back bump. It is a masterclass in the GRIND of professional wrestling. Buddy Lee Parker is putting Eric through the ringer, demanding he stops thinking and just commits to the fall. Bischoff admits he wants it to look good, but the hesitation is real. He is concerned about the impact, while the trainers are preaching the gospel of spreading out the pain to avoid injury. This is the raw reality of the business that fans rarely see. Witness the moment Bischoff finally swallows his pride and takes the hit. It is ABSOLUTELY surreal to watch an executive trade the suit for a lesson in ring psychology. 🤼 (source: 83 Weeks 83 Weeks with Eric Bischoff)

The story behind the launch of WCW Thunder is a masterclass in CORPORATE SABOTAGE. Eric Bischoff reveals that his original vision for a legitimate brand split was actually a brilliant strategy to revitalize the product, but Turner executives had ZERO interest in the long term health of the wrestling business. Instead of supporting the growth of the brand, corporate bean counters were slashing budgets while simultaneously demanding more content. Bischoff puts it bluntly: "My company was being gutted while I was being asked to produce a new primetime show with the same level of production and everything else as TNT." They were crushing production and marketing budgets just to manage EBITDA numbers so executives could cash out on stock options. It was a total DISASTER.

Ted Turner, the “Mouth of the South,” was an American legend and a true Georgia icon. Raised in Savannah, Ted built his empire in Georgia soil, starting with billboards in Macon and Atlanta before launching CNN, where he created the 24 hour news market. As owner, Ted led the Atlanta Braves to their 1995 World Series championship. Ted amassed a fortune and used it to focus on conservation work. Through his Atlanta-based Turner Foundation, he protected millions of acres and restored wildlife habitats across the nation. Please join me in praying for his family and loved ones at this time.
