On the latest episode of his The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast, AEW veteran Matt Hardy discussed the difference in booking style between Vince McMahon and Tony Khan.
While McMahon is more interested in the storylines and characters, Khan is primarily concerned with wins and losses. Hardy said,
“There were times where Vince McMahon would say, ‘There’s too much wrestling on this show!’ I’m sure if he watched AEW, he’d say, ‘there’s too much wrestling on that show.’ [Vince] views it as sports entertainment and he’s more concerned with the stories and characters… Tony Khan views pro wrestling as a more traditional, old-school type of pro wrestling where what happens in the ring is very important and it has the true consequences.”
