Speedball Mike Bailey on Tony Khan feedback

The feedback Tony Khan gives Speedball Mike Bailey apparently doesn't come with a detailed methodology attached, and Bailey seems completely fine with that. He says there was never a specific conversation about what Khan wants to see from his people in the ring, which is the kind of thing a lot of wrestlers would probably want spelled out. Instead, what Bailey gets is encouragement and a consistent presence at Gorilla, plus match notes that aren't incredibly specific but still tell him exactly what he needs to do going forward. That style works because Bailey thinks Khan is extremely smart about knowing his people's strengths. The proof is in the booking, since Khan has put him in a lot of fantastic situations that signal he sees Bailey can go into those big matches. His example is the twenty-minute match against Jon Moxley on Collision, which Bailey says is a match Tony just wouldn't put anyone else in. Going 20 minutes with Jon Moxley is a pretty big deal, and Bailey reads that as a lot of faith. He really appreciates it.
