Episode 447: Goodbye PG Era?

Podcast Heat
About this episode

On this episode of 83 Weeks, Eric Bischoff and Conrad Thompson examine what happens behind the scenes when a wrestling company produces an emotional tribute show, and the responsibility that comes with honoring a beloved performer. The guys also debate whether WWE's PG Era is coming to an end and why relying on foul language can become a creative crutch. Eric reacts to Ari Emanuel's declaration that TKO will never be sold, recalls Vince McMahon's complete lack of respect for Spike TV and reveals what Vince and Tony Khan may have in common. Plus, Eric explains why Tony Khan should do more to protect Steven Borden as he begins his wrestling journey. Then, the guys turn back the clock for another unforgettable chapter in This Week in nWo History, only on 83 Weeks!
