Eric Bischoff seems to be serious about his MYTH BUSTING blog. In his latest entry, dated October 23, he wrote:
It’s been 10 days since I launched EricBischoff.com and I have to say”¦I had no idea that the site would get the response that it has. The traffic and volume of questions/comments have been a bit overwhelming. I will continue to answer as many as I can”¦but please be patient … I want to bust my first myth of the week: Eric Bischoff does NOT have a MySpace site. I have received quite a few e-mails from people telling me that they have been corresponding with me on MySpace. NOT TRUE!! Obviously there are a few people with way too much time on their hands. To those twisted individuals pretending to be me (or anyone else for that matter): Get a friggin life!!! … “Hogan Knows Best” premiered the first episode of its third season yesterday on VH-1. If you saw it-you noticed the Hulkster drinking a Socko Energy drink and talking about “Hogan Energy” powered by Socko. “Hogan Energy” was officially introduced at an industry trade show in Las Vegas on October 10 and really kicked it! The Socko booth dominated the event and attracted an amazing number of buyers and distributors. “Hogan Energy” is also being launched in Japan very soon and distributors there are equally excited.
Okay, so that wasn’t very revealing. Maybe next week!
