While speaking more about AEW’s situation, Eric Bischoff admitted that the same internal strife happened to him. He empathized with Tony Khan to a point but feels that the AEW President has played a part in the backstage drama, calling AEW “a giant clown car” and that Khan can’t manage it. 

“It’s literally the inmates running the asylum at this point and the entire company looks like a giant clown car filled with juvenile unprofessional self-absorbed children,” said Bischoff. “Not all of them obviously, I don’t want to cast such a broad net, but I’ve never seen anything like this before. Could you imagine if Tony Khan would have been able to buy WWE? You can’t manage a clown car at this point.”

Bischoff also called it “self-destructing” behavior and that it is ruining the company. He feels that instead of fighting amongst themselves, the talent should be focusing on the All In pay-per-view and be happy with how good ticket sales are for the Wembley Stadium event. 

With CM Punk reportedly blocking other talents to work on the “Collision,” his ongoing beef with “Hangman” Adam Page, and Cash Wheeler’s arrest, the focus seems to be shifting from the incredible achievement of selling over 80,000 tickets for All In.
