Eric Bischoff thinks Vince McMahon is looking dapper with his new mustache and "dug" McMahon's antics at the opening of TKO Group on the stock market.
The days of Eric Bischoff feuding with Vince McMahon are long gone. For the last 20 years, McMahon and Bischoff have developed a relationship following Eric's coming to work for WWE in 2003.
WWE is now undergoing another change as the promotion has merged with the UFC to create TKO Group Holdings. Under the banner of Endeavor, TKO Group launched on September 12, and Vince McMahon, true to form, could not help but showboat somewhat during the stock Market opening.
McMahon briefly did a Hulk Hogan pose as the bell rang to open the stock market, and Eric Bischoff says that moment put a smile on his face. Eric Bischoff also praised Vince McMahon's new look, comparing McMahon's new mustache to that of golden age Hollywood actor Errol Flynn.
"I kind of dug it. It put a smile on my face," Eric said about Vince McMahon doing the Hulk Hogan cupping-the-ear pose during the official opening for TKO Group on the stock market. "The biggest thing I noticed is Vince wasn't wearing a tie. He's dying his hair, and he's dying his mustache. He looks great. I talked to someone recently who said he's down in the gym working out, you know? In fact, the comment was, 'If you didn't know he had just gone through back surgery. You would never have imagined it,' and that's Vince McMahon.
"Vince, once again, he looked dapper as fuck in his lavender sport coat, sporting that Errol Flynn mustache," Bischoff adds.
