During a recent interview with The Town podcast, WWE President Nick Khan discussed complaints from former WWE talents that wrestlers who don't feel they were treated fairly by the company.

He called WWE a "meritocracy" and said that everyone has a chance to earn opportunities. 

On former WWE talents who claim there is preferential treatment in the company:

“Everyone is treated humanely and deserves to be treated that way. I do think there are analogies with our company and other companies. Was Shaq treated better than any other player other than Kobe? Yeah. That’s the way it is. It’s the same way with us. It’s a meritocracy. If you’re at the top of the card, maybe you have a bigger dressing room than someone at the bottom of the card. Everyone has same opportunity to earn their way there.”
