Eric Bischoff's cheeky reaction to AEW Collision's logo lookinglikeWCWNitro

Publish date: 2024-05-12

WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff has reacted to the recent reveal of the AEW Collision logo, which bares a striking resemblance to the WCW Monday Nitro logo from the 1990s.

Bischoff was instrumental in Nitro's success during its peak in the late 1990s. He famously took WCW on an 83-week unbeaten streak against WWE Raw in the TV ratings.

As a way to pay homage to the legendary show, the logo for AEW's new show Collision has the same color scheme, layout, and font similar to that of the famous Nitro logo.

Upon seeing the two side-by-side, many wondered what someone like Bischoff would think. His response on Twitter was as cheeky as the man himself.

Collision will debut on June 17th, with the rumored venue of the United Center in Chicago still to be announced. If the rumors are true, it is more than likely that CM Punk will also be making his return to the company on June 17th.

Eric Bischoff believes AEW is taking advantage of WWE's success

It's safe to say that without WWE, the wrestling business simply wouldn't be the same. All of the major companies that have popped up over the years may not have had the success they have had if it wasn't for World Wrestling Entertainment becoming a household name.

That is something Eric Bischoff believes to be true, as he stated on the Strictly Business podcast that AEW is taking advantage of the success that WWE has had over the years.

Bischoff's main point was that if WWE was in a poor state around the time that AEW was founded. WarnerMedia wouldn't have green-lit shows like Dynamite, Rampage, or Collision in recent years.
