Bischoff on Wrestling Recap – ‘Table for 3’ with Jim Cornette, Ending the NWO, Debuting as RAW GM, More!

<p>Bischoff says that he has received very favourable reviews of his ’Table for 3’ appearance with Jim Cornette and Michael ‘PS’ Hayes from last Monday night.

However, he’s very opinionated as well, so that can rub some people the <strong><a href="http://www.ringsidenews.com/tag/wrong/" title="wrong">wrong</a></strong> way at points. Before they began taping, Cornette told Bischoff that he was going to ‘come at him’ and Bischoff told him to bring it on because first and foremost he wanted the show to be entertaining.</p><p></p><p>Bischoff says that he likes Cornette. Sure, they’ve had some differences and they’ll never be best friends, but he’d embrace the opportunity to debate Cornette again at some point in the future.</p><p>Bischoff thought that Hayes did a great job as the middle man between him and Cornette during this show. The last time he did a show like this with Hayes, he was so <strong><a href="http://www.ringsidenews.com/tag/drunk/" title="drunk">drunk</a></strong> that he could barely talk. Luckily, Hayes was completely <strong><a href="http://www.ringsidenews.com/tag/sober/" title="sober">sober</a></strong> during this show and even though he dressed like a ‘gay hooker’, he did a great job.</p>
