You never know who might make an appearance on the show when you watch AEW Dynamite, and recently Eric Bischoff appeared on the show to moderate a debate between Chris Jericho and Orange Cassidy.
Bischoff’s appearance leaked ahead of time, and during the latest episode of his Saturday Night Special Chris Jericho noted that people in AEW know who’s responsible for the leak.
“Social media is a different ball of wax. Though, I think the amount of people who are on social media is very small compared to the overall people watching. For example, when we had the debate and Eric Bischoff was announced on Reddit and we know the spy is, by the way. Oh, we know. He’ll never f–king be back in AEW. NXT reject was a spy, so print that.”
Jericho went on to say that after the leak there was talk of announcing Eric Bischoff’s appearance ahead of time, but ultimately they decided against it.
“I was like, listen, we can announce this or we can just not announce it and don’t worry about it and see, you know, the people that know will know and maybe they’ll watch if they weren’t going to. The people that don’t know, will still be surprised. That’s exactly what happened. People were super surprised that Bischoff was there and it worked out great.”
