Eric Bischoff didnt mince words when he heard Tony Khan admit to Ariel Helwani that he doesnt know AEWs streaming numbers on HBO Max.
During a recent episode of 83 Weeks, Bischoff went off after Conrad Thompson asked the question everyones been thinking.
Conrad pressed the issue while talking about AEWs upcoming negotiations for TV and streaming rights. He asked, How do you negotiate a better deal for your streaming if you dont know your current streaming numbers? Thats all it took for Bischoff to snap into full shoot mode, and what came next was a brutal takedown of Tony Khans business credibility.
Bischoff didnt stop there. He called out AEWs overall lack of strategic planning and accused the company of living in denial instead of facing its industry setbacks.
While Tony Khan is often praised for his passion, Bischoffs harsh critique puts a spotlight on AEWs more fragile areasparticularly when it comes to business transparency and long-term planning in a rapidly evolving media landscape.
