Eric Bischoff Slams AEW’s Halloween Production Values, Calls Set Dollar Store Quality

One Big Thing

Former WCW President Eric Bischoff heavily criticized AEW’s recent Fright Night episode of Dynamite, particularly targeting their Halloween set design, which he claimed looked like it came from a “dollar store” with an “$8 budget.”

The Details

• Speaking on his “83 Weeks” podcast, Bischoff watched approximately 30 minutes of the themed episode
• He specifically called out the “plastic pumpkins” and visible tape holding down green decorations on the entrance ramp
• Bischoff noted the contrast between Tony Khan’s frequent boasts about AEW’s financial success and the show’s apparent low-budget appearance

Direct Quote

“That was a horsesh*t show… there’s all these facacta Halloween decorations around, it looked like they went to the dollar store and only had 8 bucks,” Bischoff stated.

Why It Matters

Production values play a crucial role in professional wrestling’s presentation and perceived legitimacy. As AEW positions itself as WWE’s primary competitor, criticism from industry veterans like Bischoff about basic production elements could impact the company’s credibility with fans and potential business partners.

The Bigger Picture

• AEW regularly produces themed episodes to create unique viewing experiences
• The company faces ongoing scrutiny about its production quality compared to WWE
• Bischoff, with decades of wrestling production experience, remains a vocal critic of AEW’s operational decisions
