Who was the better heel - Eric Bischoff NWO or Mr. Mcmahon

Eric Bischoff was the lead heel when he joined the NWO, long before Vince Mcmahon turned heel and became Mr. Mcmahon.

Who had more heel heat at the top of their runs, Bischoff or Mr. Mcmahon?
Do you think Vince watched Bischoff to take hints on how to be a heel?

Bischoff just rode the coattails of the NWO and Hogan to get any heat he got. Vince didn't join a huge faction that was already the biggest part of their show before Eric ever joined them.

Vince went head to head with the biggest face in the company and was good enough and believable enough to not only make it successful but be the biggest storyline perhaps ever, and overtook the angle Bischoff himself joined to get over. Gotta go with Vince on this one.

How is this even a discussion? Bischoff was cool, but to compare it to McMahon is like comparing Hogan to Evan Bourne.

Vince was great but... Bischoff seemed to actually play the role better. I remember more from his NWO and Raw GM run with him as an actual authority figure with power while most of the memories with Vince are him peeing his pants or getting hit in the head by a bed pan.

Sure, one is fun to see happen, but looking back on it now, it's nowhere near as great as in the moment. Bischoff's runs have far more staying power and far more subtle so you can get more out of it.
