On what he would like to see from the Cruiserweight division when it debuts on RAW:
EB: Honestly, if I had my hand in the cookie jar right now I would want the division to feel so fresh and so different than everything else I am seeing on RAW. I would avoid, as much as I could, crossover with the RAW roster. I would want all new guys that are born out of this Cruiserweight Classic. I would love to see them come in and represent that division so that it did feel distinct and it did feel unique. The first thing that’s going to happen when you start migrating guys back and forth off the current RAW roster in to the Cruiserweight division. You mix them up with some of the guys that are fresh that come out of this Cruiserweight Classic and it’s going to dilute the feeling. It’s going to be subliminal. It’ll be subconscious. People aren’t going to sit there facepalming and banging their heads on sharp objects. They aren’t going to do that but subliminally it’s going to kind of feel very similar before you know it. As soon as it starts happening it’ll lose it’s potential.
In the full episode Eric goes deeper in to his thoughts on the Cruiserweight Classic as well as WWE’s decision to bring back the Cruiserweight division in general.
He also airs the first half of his interview with his first ever guest Nick Aldis (aka Magnus).
A new episode of Bischoff on Wrestling will be released every Wednesday night on iTunes & PodcastArena.com.
