Eric Bischoff Praises WWE For Holding PLEs On Saturday Instead Of Sunday Nights
Professional wrestling veteran Eric Bischoff recently shared his thoughts on WWE’s decision to hold their Pay-Per-View Live Events (PLEs) on Saturday nights instead of Sundays. Bischoff expressed his agreement with this scheduling change during the latest episode of his Strictly Business podcast.
Bischoff highlighted the unique atmosphere that Saturday nights bring to the viewing experience, comparing it to watching football with friends. He emphasized the enjoyment of having a small gathering, sharing beverages, and creating an event-like atmosphere while watching the PLEs. According to Bischoff, this relaxed and social environment enhances fans’ overall experience and engagement with the product.
Speaking on the podcast, Bischoff stated, “There’s something about the mood on a Saturday night. I think people are more inclined to enjoy the product on a Saturday night than on a Sunday night when they have to get up and go to work the next day.”
While some may argue that changing the day of the week for PLEs is insignificant, Bischoff firmly believes that Saturday nights provide a more favorable setting for fans to fully immerse themselves in the experience.
As Bischoff shared his perspective on WWE’s decision, he made it clear that he prefers referring to these events as “pay-per-views” and will continue to do so, regardless of any objections. His unwavering stance on the matter emphasizes his commitment to authenticity and personal preference.
These comments from Bischoff have sparked conversations among wrestling fans, with many agreeing that Saturday nights are indeed more conducive to enjoying PLEs. The relaxed atmosphere and the absence of work-related concerns the following day allow fans to fully invest in the event and share the experience with friends.
WWE’s decision to schedule PLEs on Saturdays has proven to be a successful move, drawing positive reactions from both fans and industry insiders. The change has contributed to a more enjoyable viewing experience for wrestling enthusiasts, enhancing their connection with the product.
