I believe Bobby Lashley. Other than the way he threw dirt on Big Swole's name when she left, Tony Khan often gets called a nice guy. The wrestling business could use a few more nice guys.

I'm more of a fair but stern type of booker. The "nice" guys always end up stabbing you in the back because it's easy access from a hug :francis: . Honestly, there's like two bookers that seem genuine in this industry that need their roses:

Scott D'Amore and the guy that almost had the book until Bischoff took over in WCW.

Daily's Palace should have been like the IMPACT Zone, and a few places near the south should have been the end game. Grow slow and profitable, versus bleeding and catering sicko beard behavior.

The problem is it's an open air venue. People were having issues because no matter what you tried to do to heat/cool the venue, because of it being open air, you'd still have to deal with the elements. A Spring Break episode would probably work at Daily's but as a home base like the Impact Zone it wouldn't work due to it not being contained.

I dont think thats TK. I think TK’s bad attribute when it comes to being nice is that he’s also p*ssy.

Look no further than the CM Punk scrum. shyt would never fly with Vince, HHH, Bischoff, Cornette, D’Amore, Heyman, shyt I don’t even think Dixie would have stood by for that

You also got to factor in the stance of Tony Khan as a person. Dude is not used to running the show but being just the owner. If dude was a coach, you will see the same gripes that wrestling heads have right now concerning the "nice guy" approach.

He's a kid in a toys store and got all of the figures, yet overstimulation comes with the cost of not realizing that these same toys have personalities. Phil on the hand was a test to see if Tony can drop his nuts, and guess what...he fukked that up and tuck them shyts in to let Phil shyt all over him.

He could have checked the "EVPs", but they forced his hand on some HBK in 95 shyt.

Hell, look at the Cody Rhodes situation....dude could have easily told the Bucks and em to fukk off, I'm giving Cody the bag and understanding of where the promotion should go, but lol.

Bottom line, there are layers to the shyt.

A football coach wants their team to win by any means, a football owner just want to keep revenue.

Tony in the steez of wanting to win the wrestling war, but at the cost of a promotion walking all over him.

He's going to have to let those nuts hang :manny:. Word to Watts, Bischoff, Vince, and sigh......Hunter Nostrils.

Tony Khan seems like the kind of guy who only has friends because he'll finance the friendship. He's that guy who'll pay for SuperBowl tickets for the whole crew if you let him hang with you & your boys a few times.

While I see your point and understand the reasoning, I feel like thats the wrong approach. If you own something, you gotta want the best for your product. Cuz winning equals more revenue. NFL teams that win make the playoffs and thats extra games of revenue, same for any sport. Winning also draws more fans. Especially if the product is hot. I remember going to 2 world series iin my younger days and stadium was always packed. And now the marlins barely even reached a million, just oakland was worse and they moving. so winning def has an effect on revenue. Compare that to the Panthers who just won the stanley cup and were high on attendance, and thats with the area not even being a hockey hotbed like canada, chicago, nyc, or those northern cities. you draw attendance and revenue by putting on a winning product and thats what an owners mindset should be. if not they should just sell the team.

There's nothing wrong with those type of people in the world. We all need people like that in our life. Most everyone says he's a good guy, so a good guy who funds everything is great in my book.

That guy's good in my book, too. We keep a couple guys like that in my friend circle, and most of us haven't bought a round in months!
:ehh:
