Episode 433: We Need Evil Cody

On this week's edition of 83 Weeks, Eric Bischoff and Conrad Thompson tackle the biggest stories in professional wrestling with Eric's trademark honesty and behind the scenes perspective. The conversation begins with one of WWE's most debated topics as Eric asks, "Is Sami Zayn the new Danhausen?"After famously admitting he underestimated Danhausen's connection with fans, Eric explains why he's wrestling with many of the same questions surrounding Sami Zayn's championship run. Has WWE made the right decision, or is there something Eric still isn't seeing?

The guys also explore whether this could be the perfect opportunity for Cody Rhodes to make the shocking leap to the dark side. Could a heel turn be exactly what Cody's character needs, and what would it take for WWE to pull it off in a way that feels authentic and compelling? Then the show shifts into wrestling history as Eric breaks down one of the defining strengths of Scott Hall and Kevin Nash during the formation of the New World Order. From their unmatched confidence to their instinctive understanding of television production, Eric explains how Hall and Nash knew exactly how to command the camera and capture an audience unlike anyone else.
