Speaking on the Worlds End media call recently, Khan Opened up about the people in his office who help him in terms of booking:
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
"We have a great group of people, right now in my office, just as an example yesterday we had a great group with Bryan Danielson, Will Washington, Jimmy Jacobs, Sonjay Dutt, Sarah Stock, and Dean Malenko, and several others that were in my office throughout the day at various points. Bryan had his match and people were in and out. I think everybody had great points and there were number of other people. But I did come up with a lot of it and we've been on an incredible run of shows." [From 22:18 to 22:59]

Tony Khan on not getting the setup he wanted
Tony Khan also admitted that he didn't get the particular set-up he wanted for the purpose of booking. But he was able to produce a good product regardless:
"It wasn’t quite the set-up I was looking for so I’ll see if I still get it, but very excited to talk about the science of the booking and I think in particular, recently, we’ve had some of the best shows we’ve ever done." [H/T: SEScoops]
Henceforth, only time will tell what TK has in store for the fans heading into 2024 and how he uses his booking team to the best of his ability.
