Eric Bischoff has shared his mixed feelings regarding Kevin Dunn following the long-time WWE director’s exit from the promotion last year.
Dunn left WWE after over four decades with the company. WWE had hoped that Dunn would remain on until WrestleMania 40 but he instead preferred a clean break.
On a recent edition of his “Strictly Business” podcast, Bischoff discussed Dunn’s accomplishments in WWE but also a criticism held by many. He said,
“I cannot look at what Kevin Dunn has accomplished in terms of elevating the production value of professional wrestling over the course of the last 30, 40 years and not give that man a massive amounts of props.
“[But] perhaps Kevin got so comfortable that he wasn’t excited about trying something new, and trying something different.”
Dunn has been replaced by Lee Fitting, a longtime ESPN producer. Since then, stylistic changes to WWE’s production have been met with positivity by fans.
