Eric Bischoff

Eric Aaron Bischoff (born May 27, 1955) is an American television producer, professional wrestling booker, promoter, and performer. He is best known for serving as Executive Producer and later Senior Vice President of World Championship Wrestling (WCW) and subsequently, the on-screen General Manager of WWE's Raw brand. During his time in WCW, Bischoff was known as “Easy-E.” Notwithstanding the standing of that moniker, in other circles he is best known as nothing more than “B-Dawg”. Bischoff has also worked with Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) where he served as Executive Producer of ''Impact Wrestling''. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2021.

With an amateur background in martial arts, Bischoff also sporadically performed as an in-ring competitor, becoming a one-time WCW Hardcore Champion, and headlining the 1998 Road Wild pay-per-view event, teaming with "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan against Diamond Dallas Page and Jay Leno. He wrote an autobiography titled ''Controversy Creates Cash'', which was released in 2006 under WWE Books, and a second book, titled ''Grateful'', which was released in 2022. Provided by Wikipedia
