20 Worst Wrestlers In TNA History
6. Garett Bischoff
You've gotta love nepotism, huh? When Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan hopped on board in 2009, there was a weird mix of optimism and scepticism. Some were hopeful that their name value and status would help TNA reach hitherto unseen levels of exposure. And maybe the product would improve with two 'genius' wrestling minds at the helm, too. After all, Hogan and Bischoff were key players in WCW's success in the mid-to-late 90s.
Others, however, remembered that Hogan and Bischoff were partly responsible for WCW's decline and ultimate downfall, too, and that Hogan had a habit of hiring all of his mates to come and work for him (sure enough, Brian Knobbs, Sean Waltman, Scott Hall, Brutus Beefcake and a host of others showed up in TNA). Few would have expected Eric Bischoff to push his wannabe wrestler son Garett as a main eventer, mind, but that's exactly what happened.
It was laughable, with Hogan proclaiming him to be the future of the business, despite the fact he couldn't work a lick, had no presence, and even less charisma. He flopped big time as a babyface and a heel turn and run in Aces and Eights couldn't save him. When Daddy left, the writing was on the wall for Garett.
