Torch VIP Members, click on the red VIP Audio Updates button above to access today's new Torch Talk Audio feature.
The following is part eight of the exclusive five–hour “Torch Talk” with former WCW President Eric Bischoff, who took it to WWE in the late–'90s during the Monday Night War. He later became an on–air WWE G.M. And now he’s working behind the scenes in TNA and declaring he hasn’t been this excited about pro wrestling in years. In this eighth installment, recorded October 1, he talks about his history with Vince Russo, his early impressions of TNA, Jerry Jarrett, and more. The final page is particularly applicable to what’s going on now in early 2010 as Bischoff talks about his strategy and approach in working with Russo in WCW ten years ago; it may parallel his approach in working with Russo in TNA today.
