Eric Bischoff was recently interviewed by the UK Sun where he talked, among other things, about the reason why Vince McMahon hated CCW so much. According to Bischoff, Vince has some early plans for making a reality show very similar to CCW, even bringing celebrities. Bischoff states that McMahon didn't dislike the show because it exposed the business (reportedly being the reason why Vince attacked CCW and threatened to close WWE's doors to anyone involved in it):
"I think the reason Vince McMahon got mad is because we put on a great show and it was a fresh idea (...) Vince was only disappointed that we got there first."

the McMahon didn't dislike the show because it exposed the business idea is a joke.

The McMahon's hated it because it was someone else's idea. I think the WWE should create a show like Ultimate Fighter. I doubt they could make it legit but if they took some actually up and coming wrestlers and followed them as they went through the wrestling school in Florida they might have something good.
