I think in 20 years we will look back at Tony Khan as a total monster for deciding to enter the wrestling business and taking a number of anti competitive actions such as counter programming NXT to its demise, and consequently being responsible for WWE needing to layoff dozens of workers. The wrestling industry is noticeably more dire ever since that guy showed up

There was also that story Aubrey Edwards told about first meeting Tay Conti in NXT, they hated each other, then much later they both left NXT and realized it was just that everyone hates each other in NXT

Fightful Select:quote:Fightful learned that a couple of hours before Smackdown, Cole was taken directly to Vince McMahon's office, in something that was said to have appeared a "high priority" to McMahon himself. Those high up in WWE said that they heard the meeting went well, and Vince McMahon seemed to have taken a liking to Adam Cole on a personal level.

lol it's the same poo poo every time - Vince takes someone into his office that is about to leave and does the Vince cult mind trick on them, they sign and aren't used in any good way for the next five years. Just happy to be there.

Grant DaNasty posted:Fightful Select: Lol. Have you guys ever put in a 2 weeks notice and the boss hastily brings up a substantial pay raise and maybe even a bonus if you stay And it turns out he just needed to get his employee retention ratio decent for that quarter and he cuts you as soon as his own reviews are done, so now you don't have a job and you don't have another one lined up. So everyone advises you to leave and don't take the raise
