Episode 429: Why The nWo Still Matters
On this episode of 83 Weeks, Eric Bischoff and Conrad Thompson welcome one of the most respected voices in combat sports and professional wrestling, Ariel Helwani, for a wide ranging conversation on the biggest topics in the business today. The trio dives into the remarkable rise of Danhausen and why his current run is resonating with fans in a way few performers have managed in recent years. Eric explains why Danhausen has his finger firmly on the pulse of the modern wrestling audience and what promoters can learn from his success. Eric and Ariel also explore why the nWo remains one of the most influential acts in wrestling history, discussing its lasting impact on fans and the fascinating story behind the group nearly having a television show of its own. Three decades later, the black-and-white phenomenon continues to shape the industry. Plus, has WWE creative finally jumped the shark? Eric doesn't hold back as he shares his thoughts on some of the company's recent creative decisions. The conversation also turns to Cody Rhodes, with Bischoff explaining why he's losing interest in Cody as a babyface champion and what could reignite that connection with the audience. Finally, it's a special edition of "On The Nose: WCW Edition" as Ariel Helwani joins Eric and Conrad to test his knowledge and opinions on some of WCW's biggest moments, personalities, and controversies.

Episode 427: What Now MVP?
On this episode of 83 Weeks, Eric Bischoff and host Conrad Thompson are pulling no punches as they tackle some of the most talked about topics in wrestling today. Eric breaks down what he believes is the biggest question the Most Valuable Promotion (MVP) should be asking right now "what's next?" Eric also shares his genuine shock at seeing Brock Lesnar back on WWE programming, and what that surprise return could mean for the business moving forward. From there, the discussion takes a serious turn as Bischoff weighs in on the difference between accusations and outcomes, reminding listeners that a charge is not the same as a conviction. The hits keep coming as Eric offers a plea to AEW's Mick Foley to stay out of the ring, citing the physical toll of his legendary career.

Episode 425: No Contract Is Forever
On this episode of 83 Weeks, Eric Bischoff and Conrad Thompson pull back the curtain on some of wrestling's hottest business topics and biggest misconceptions. Eric explains why he believes Ted Turner is one of the biggest reasons WWE is still thriving today, and how the Monday Night Wars forever changed the industry. He also dives into the reality of talent contracts, discussing why a WWE deal never guaranteed The New Day lifetime job security and why, sometimes, audiences simply move on from an act. The guys welcome gimmick attorney, Michael Dockins to the show. Mike breaks down the often misunderstood 90-day non-compete clause, revealing how it actually works behind the scenes, while Mike and Eric analyzes the new "delightfully vague" language appearing in modern talent agreements. Plus, Bischoff gives his take on the myth of "no-cut contracts" and why guaranteed deals aren't always what fans think they are. Business takes center stage as Eric praises TKO Group Holdings's partnership with ESPN, calling it a brilliant marketing move for the future of wrestling media. He also reflects on the financial disasters of World Championship Wrestling house shows, revealing just how much money the company burned during its peak years. And in one of the wildest conversations yet, Eric explores how OpenAI and artificial intelligence could help shape future wrestling storylines before 83 Weeks actually uses ChatGPT to fantasy book the main event of SummerSlam!
