TNA personality Eric Bischoff claims WWE paid him $50,000 last quarter

Eric Bischoff responded to a Facebook fan question asking why he continues to promote his book "Controversy Creates Cash" even though it's a WWE product. "I got a $50,000.00 royalty check last quarter for that book," Bischoff wrote. "As long as they keep selling, I will keep promoting." To read more from Bischoff, visit his Facebook.com.

Powell's POV: I believe Bischoff is technically considered a TNA consultant. He's not considered an employee of the company to the best of my knowledge, so he is contractually free to promote the book and any other product.
