Eric Bischoff is best known for his time running WCW and nearly defeating Vince McMahon and the WWE in the late 90s.
In a shocking turn of events, Bischoff signed with WWE in July 2002 following the purchase of WCW. He would serve as the general manager of Monday Night Raw until 2005.
During that time, he and Trish had numerous interactions on screen. Most notably, a match between the two in the main event of Raw.
Bischoff will join the Hall on Tuesday, April 6th, where for the first time, WWE will induct the classes of both 2021 and 2020, which was postponed due to the pandemic. The ceremony will be streamed live on Peacock.
