I'm sure he has curated dossiers on everyone who has played for him over the years which could be a great ratings bump during playoffs.
The problem with that is that he's I think pretty much guaranteed to use his new podium as a place to stroke his own ego and talk bs about people, and millions will believe him.

I mean, didn't we just learn the lesson that giving a sociopath an audience and treating him as entertainment is a really bad idea?
