Ari Emmanuel is the owner and has final say.
He lets Nick Khan make the business decisions so he can stay hands off.
Nick Khan isn't a booker and wants out, he was just there to facilitate the deal, so he's not doing creative.
HHH was assigned to the position of creative head but the Rock politicked with Ari to get on the board of directors so the Rock can contribute to creative and take credit for everything, as he always wanted.
Because of this, booking goes like this
>HHH: Cody versus Roman, 2/3 falls no time limit, bring in Seth and surprise appearances as needed>Rock: No, I have to fight Roman, he's ohana, this is the best story trips, you know it>HHH: But you won't be available every week, you've got movies and other deals to do>Rock: I'll do it for the Rock>HHH: heh okay then you go fight Roman, just telling you that the fans won't like it one bit>Rock: They'll cheer for the Rock<1 week later>
>Rock: They fucking booed the Rock>HHH: Told ya, Cody versus Roman it is>Rock: No I'm fighting Cody>HHH: You can't go 30 minutes brother>Rock: They'll let me, send up a jobber I'll prove it<1 week later>
>HHH: Caught your breath yet?>Rock: *pant* Look, I'm in shape by Mania, it's gonna be fine<1 week later>
>Rock: Nobody saw the veins or the heaving, don't even start with me trip>HHH: Not a word>Rock: OK ALRIGHT, the Rock will do what's best for business>HHH: Cody v Roman, thanks for agre->Rock: TAG MATCH FOR THE KINGDOM>HHH: Jesus fucking Christ...
