People seem to never grasp or have real expectations as to what kind of answers an executive can even provide. The reason interviews with executives are usually rare is because they can’t really say anything that people expect to hear them say. They have to be careful about whatever they do say in their position and answering that way is always going to make people upset because it comes off as disingenuous because they can’t give the answers that people wish they could. But with that in mind people should have those real expectations before they tune into such an interview and understand they’re not going to get some salacious dirt they’re hoping to hear.

When he says that the recent releases couldn't move the needle currently or in the future in their opinion he is counting a bray wyatt (windham) and an adam scheer (braun strowman). Remember this.

My review from this whole interview is .. He's an intelligent man indeed . No doubt . Business minded . I can see his focus is more on how to increase WWE's stock market . He's focus on merchandise sales . It's all money . Let's not go onto PROFESSIONAL WRESSSTLLING . Because that definitely doesn't fit the mold in WWE anymore . But when we even talk about the ENTERTAINMENT aspect (which is no secret that's the direction WWE wanna be known for for years and years) , it's not even ENTERTAINING anymore . I'd only watch NXT and Smackdown . But Raw is just so terrible and lackluster i had to totally gave up watching . So after this video , the explanation is clear enough . Right now , i could just accept the fact that WWE isn't gonna change nor listen for nobody .

Well trained, I suppose. Everything he says is by the book. Obviously some half truths here and there like saying the WWE doesn't pay attention to the competition and never has...They always have and still do. Hell, there's video proof of the producers watching AEW at an NXT event. But he works for WWE so I suppose a lie or two is to be expected. Sounds like he's the perfect stooge to maintain their current trajectory. The quality of the product itself will likely see no improvement. He's not that guy. He also incites some red flags to me as it pertains to his philosophy on acquiring talent. There's not a single thing wrong with pursuing talent outside of wrestling and then building them into WWE superstars. Some of the biggest stars have come from precisely that. They do, however, seem almost entirely dismissive now of Independent wrestling. They were for a while, then sort of opened the door quite a bit to it but still never invested in anyone who came from that system the way they should have, and now they're back to shutting that door again. WWE is just going to do what WWE does and maybe it works for some. Hasn't worked for me in a long time. I guess I'm just grateful now to have passionate pro wrestling back in my life on Wednesdays at 8. Good, succinct interview. But I'll stick with the other Khan.
4 hour RAW? 8 hour Smackdown? This man is a literal disease to the product. No wonder no likes WWE anymore.

He's an MMA interviewer.
Solomonster brought me here
What I got from this is basically (screw fans and what anyone wants, I'm here to get make the company and my bosses money, thus solidifying my relationship and getting richer.) And when that's the main focus in the building well it's like he said we the fans are seen as the "life blood" as he said so I guess that makes him the blood sucker.
So I’m starting to feel not upset about NXT’s rebrand. WWE does have a ton of Indy talent that they don’t know what to do with. Let Impact, AEW, ROH, and NJPW bolster their rosters and offer something different at better levels. Just don’t give me terrible wrestlers who are there because they got the look and a shred of charisma. Bianca Belair gives me hope for this new approach considering her background.
I’m here to watch the most triggering interview for WWE fans😂
He's trolling the IWC... I love him.
Goldberg in a title picture and yet wwe fire great talent like Bray and others
