The Destroyer - Samoa Joe.

Obviously both incidents were accidents. Things happen. I truly don't think he did either intentionally.

Those are the only 2 times I recall him being involved in someone being injured.
 
You know what, it's best that I don't even go back and watch that rivalry. Based on what I've read, it will increase the likelihood that I will make statements that could impact my career in future.

Yeah tho I think it was here I read somebody said Booker T has a whole bunch of herky-jerky in his ring movements, and I've never been able to un-see it. It's kinda cool tho, distinctive but apparently effective...like Shawn Marion's shooting form or Jeff Bagwell's batting stance.

I've been studying Booker T a lot lately, especially his early career, and I feel like dude never gets his due as one of the greatest of all time.

Dude had a nice versatile offense that incorporated quickness, power and strikes, and what I really like about his style is that he used his body frame to his advantage. Guy's legs had to be 4 feet long and he used them for basically his entire moveset from the arm wrench/hook kick combo and scissor kick to the Harlem Hangover. Someone with a similar body type could learn a lot from watching him.

I missed pretty much his whole E run , but as a 5 time 5 time 5 time 5 time 5 time WCW world champion and reign in the Show along with a numerous other accolades in the sport, he's accomplished a lot more than some of the other names that constantly show up on top 10/25 lists.


The Bookerman's in my fave 5.

I'll have the Elimination Chamber Survey up by the middle of next week. May be difficult to come up with questions. Only one match has been announced. :lol

Booker is surely underrated.

He was poised for a monster run as a baby face and the crowd was ready for that, until HHH nixed all that

Their whole feud was racist as **** too bit yalll be letting that **** go

I think none of us let it slide cause the company has an extensive history of going with stereotypes and sometimes blatant *** racism. Plus many of us have gone through that personal struggle and not got the W, so it does mirror reality in a very sad way. :(

I was so damn happy when he beat Rey to get Big Gold. It was well deserved.
