Eric Bischoff Slams AEW for Allegedly Copying WCW Nitro Logo in Collision

AEW’s unveiling of their Collision logo sparked significant interest among fans, particularly due to its striking resemblance to the iconic WCW Nitro logo. The color scheme and layout similarity did not go unnoticed, catching the attention of wrestling enthusiasts and industry figures alike. One such individual is former WCW President Eric Bischoff.

During his 83 Weeks podcast episode, Bischoff didn’t hold back in expressing his views on AEW’s logo choice for Collision. He labeled it a “rip-off” and expressed skepticism regarding the longevity of the program.

Bischoff’s outlook on AEW Collision appears bleak, and he delved into how fans might perceive this addition to AEW’s weekly schedule. He acknowledged that while it might be flattering to replicate the success of WCW Nitro, attempting to recreate such an iconic brand poses significant risks.

Furthermore, Bischoff highlighted fans’ unique relationship with Nitro and its impact on the industry during its heyday. He recognized that fans who experienced Nitro’s groundbreaking era hold the program in high regard. However, he cautioned that attempting to recreate that magic might prove unattainable due to the heightened expectations and nostalgia associated with the original version.

As AEW Collision faces hurdles early on, such as CM Punk pulling out and reportedly low ticket sales for initial events, Bischoff’s criticism adds another layer of scrutiny. AEW’s creative choices have drawn considerable attention and discussion, with the promotion now under increased scrutiny as they navigate these challenges.

The success and reception of AEW Collision will undoubtedly be closely monitored as the wrestling world observes the impact of the logo controversy and assesses the broader trajectory of AEW’s programming decisions under Tony Khan’s leadership.
