    Booker T pays tribute to the great WWE/WCW/Japan legend Big Van Vader (Leon White) who passed away from congestive heart failure. Booker T worked with Vader a great deal in WCW and learned many things from his early in his career. Vader was definitely one of the greatest big men ever to step foot in wrestling and he will be sorely missed. RIP Vader

    Vader is one of my all time favorites. Criminally underrated and his matches hold up extremely well over time.

    Big Man Vader was a true legend. He might have been called stiff in the ring, a difficult person to get along with, but he was a huge draw and legit tough guy. He definitely made professional wrestling much better with his presence and his matches were extraordinary. He was an amazing talent with his abilities in the ring, and legit had a scary presence and cut excellent promos. RIP Vader Leon White

    I remember they mingled Harlem Heat right in with Vader, Sid, Sting and Bulldog after they debuted. Heat had just come from ECW, and were already being groomed as future Tag Team Champions. Awesome story from Booker T!

      Not just by anyone, but hansen. Remember hansen's line about the tyson fight? "I don't think they'll throw any punches harder than what was thrown tonight". Something like that. I'll bet hansen injured a lot of guys.

    Looking at books hands while talking looked like he was getting a bit emotional while talking about Vader was fidgeting with the pen and papers i don’t know if they were close friends or not but it genuinely feels like book was getting a little emotional

    That War Games story sounds spot on believable because when you watch that match, that's exactly who Booker T was, the bump guy and the guy to take the fall. I remember being a BIG fan of Harlem Heat early on and didn't wanna see him go out like that but what choice did they have? Somebody had to be "that guy" for the heels to lose. I'm sure that was a great early lesson for Booker on professionalism and how losing won't make or break you if you have the goods for the long run. 💪🏿
