10 Things We Learned From Eric Bischoff’s Podcast: New World Order

2. Eric Was A “Little P*ssed”About Bobby Heenan’s Foreshadowing

As Hulk Hogan stormed the ring, seemingly to help Randy Savage and Sting fend off the invading Outsiders, Bischoff watched from high up in the Ocean Center's bleachers. Therefore, he wasn't aware when Bobby Heenan on commentary questioned which side Hogan was there to aid seconds before his heel turn.

When he did hear it back, Eric was a "little p*ssed".

Later, he said he had only been about "2/10" in terms of being annoyed by Heenan's foreshadowing. Perhaps Bischoff calmed down when realising that his own mentality (not to clue the announcers in on what was going to happen before major moments) had come back to bite him.

Bobby wasn't reprimanded for the line backstage after the show, and Bischoff doesn't feel it totally ruined the Hulk turn. Here, he made a good point: few believed Hogan would ever turn rogue, so a heel announcer who had been bashing Hulk on TV for over a decade wasn't going to change that opinion.
