How Wrestling Explains the World
Society & Culture
Nick and Dave jump back into our survey of the legendary career of soon-to-be two-time (two time!) WWE Hall of Famer, Booker T., with a focus on his post-WCW run in WWE, as King Booker and in the Main Event Mafia during his time in TNA.
This week’s edutaining banter features discussion of...
- Where does his SummerSlam match with the Rock rank on the list of best bouts in both their careers?
- What does his grocery store fight with Stone Cold Steve Austin's have to do with Japanese hair commercials?
- How fucking racist was the infamous "people like you" feud between he and HHH in the lead up to WrestleMania XIX?
- Why does King Booker work so well?
- Was his time in TNA actually kind of great or at least worthy of RESPECT?
