WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff will appear on AEW programming this week.
Specifically, the former WCW President will appear on a special Friday night episode of AEW Dynamite.
Chris Jericho announced the news on an episode of Busted Open, and he explained this occasion will mark the first time he and Bischoff are on the same side.
“This Friday, we’re having a celebration of the Inner Circle,” said Jericho. “That has been kind of promoted and perpetrated by AEW, it’s not an Inner Circle idea. It’s AEW kind of giving thanks to the Inner Circle for all that we’ve done over the past year and a half. Because if this indeed is our last match at Stadium Stampede, then we’re going down with all guns blazing.
“But the host, the MC of this Inner Circle celebration, this is exclusive, we haven’t told anybody this, but it’s gonna be a returning Eric Bischoff. It’s the first time that Bischoff and I have ever been on the same side. We have made amends, and he has agreed to come down to kind of MC and host the celebration for the Inner Circle.”
