The book was written by RD Reynolds (the guy that runs the Wrestlecrap website) and Brian Alvarez (the guy that runs F4) after they did tons of interviews. The only people that gave consent for they're names to be given out though was John Tenta and Bobby Heenan.

Bischoff isn't an idiot, but his ego probably got the better of him, and I bet there are a few things he wishes he did differently.

Heres where Bischoff went wrong. When it came time to kill the NWO (or when he finally did anyways), his ratings had dropped. Remember the ratings where at a level above most shows at this time but he panicked and lost his cool with the company. His bosses (yes, the president of WCW had bosses not named Ted) started overturning his ideas. So he simply quit by going on long vacations (like ones that lasted weeks) and the people left had no idea what to do.
Fun fact, the booker between Bischoff and Russo was none other then the head guy for advertising at Pizza Hut. How anyone thought that was a good idea is beyond me.

Here's everything in a nutshell why it wasn't a good idea and why they needed a level headed Bischoff running things

Don't be surprised if all the Trips shoots are a work. HHH called out Hardy on his "extra curricular activities." and Jeff called out the "Family" on HHH.

Well, he's been saying things that weren't scripted. It pissed of a lot of the guys when he was saying stuff like, "I come out here, pick up the mic, and talk about my upcoming title match. That's called a "promo"
Basically he's trying to make it sound like the young guys know nothing about their jobs and that's just wrong to do on camera. Yesterday with Jeff and Trips was definitely a work. They just incorporated shoots into it. But you can tell that segment was preplanned
