The most recent batch of WWE announcements has refocused attention on the company’s dubious business practises, which are thought to have been driven by President and Chief Revenue Officer Nick Khan. During this week’s episode of Smack Talk, Dutch Mantell gave his candid thoughts on the powerful boss.
Nick Khan, according to the former WWE manager, did not understand wrestling and believed that his primary responsibility was to boost the company’s earnings.
Vince McMahon, his family, and the creative team, according to Mantell, have different responsibilities from Khan’s department. He even hinted that if WWE’s financial situation worsens, the President and Chief Revenue Officer might be fired.
“Because the guy running the company doesn’t understand wrestling. What’s his name? What’s his first name? Nick Khan, he doesn’t understand the business, he’s got one job, it’s the bottom line, that’s all his job is. Creative handles to make it interesting or not, Vince handles what he handles, and the kids handle what they handle. “
“He has to handle, strictly, the bottom line, and that’s how he is going to be just, or guess what, he’s going to be cut!” said Dutch Mantell.

WWE, according to Dutch Mantell, is exclusively accountable to its shareholders.
WWE is apparently searching for young, physically imposing wrestlers once again, reverting to its previous hiring requirements.
Dutch Mantell claimed that Vince McMahon’s firm has simply reverted to its 1980s and 1990s format. The well-known figure also discussed how WWE executives are only accountable to shareholders.
Unfortunately for fans, upper management is unlikely to make any significant adjustments to the product that could jeopardise the corporation’s existence as a publicly traded company.
“That was their format back in the 90s, 80s. They wanted young, but they wanted those big guys. So, if you were like 220 (pounds), you were too small. They wanted you to be 280, 300, 6’5, 6’6. So, if that’s their format, if that’s their model for who they want, it’s a public company, but it’s still, if that’s their type of way they want to book it and present their talent, it may not be right to us, but they’re not answering to us.”
“They are answering to their shareholders. I think they are going to have a little bit of a legal problem out of that, I guess. But pro football does it,” Mantell stated.
