Wade Keller: You said Kevin Dunn really quickly (on who Bischoff least enjoyed working with in WWE). I don't want to let another deserving name go by. Is there anybody else?
Eric Bischoff: No. Actually, everybody else I got along with. And it's not that Kevin and I didn't along. Fortunately I didn't have to work with him too often. We didn't have to communicate too often. He's another one of those guys who trained in the McMahon style of management where he'll be cordial to your face - and I've seen the way he treats other people as well and I've heard him over the headsets and in most other public companies he'd have a real problem. In my interface with him, it was fine. It wasn't antagonistic, but he's easy to read and, believe me, there's no love lost between either one of us.
