    Hell froze over at ClubWWI.com this week as Eric Bischoff joined James Guttman for a rare 65 minute uncut shoot interview with no topic off limits. In one of Eric's most revealing and open interviews ever, James asked about a ton of topics from his career including his thoughts on TNA, citing that they handle the booking differently than Bischoff did in WCW. As opposed to altering the characters of established stars, TNA tends to keep them as-is.

    Eric answered that he gets many questions on his website about TNA. Most fans want to know if they're the next WCW or if he'll ever go to work for them. He tells Guttman that his assessment of TNA is correct and explains more in detail:

    "They have not done anything yet and I don’t even know any of those people except maybe Jeff Jarrett and a handful of talent working there. I don't know anyone behind the (scenes). I don't know Dixie Carter. If she showed up in my driveway, I wouldn't recognize her. I don't know anyone over there. I don't know who's doing what. I really don't care. So it's nothing personal here. I'd like to see them succeed…But the truth is, from what I've seen of their product, no one there really gets it. They're a small independent company that's been getting a 1.0 rating for the last five years. ..They keep trying to pull rabbits out of their hat with talent. 'Oh we're gonna bring in Sting and that's gonna turn the business around! ' Well, they brought in Sting, who's obviously a great talent, and guess what? Nothing happened. And then 'We're gonna bring in Christian Cage. It's a big surprise. He's hot in WWE and we got him and it's gonna turn things around.' Guess what? Nothing happened. Then 'We're gonna bring in Kurt Angle and he's the real deal. Things are gonna turn around!' Guess what? Nothing happened. Nothing's ever gonna happen until they get it."
