    Bruh lol the best thing was he would change mid character. He would be speaking in the King Booker Accent....then when somebody says something disrespectful he'd switch to Booker T and say "Tell Me he Didn't Just Say That"

    I was just recently watching clips of King Booker before they announced the return of the tournament. King Booker is not only the best king of the ring cause he went all out with the accent and promos coronations. I believe he is one of the all time greatest heels in wrestling. And if you get a chance to go back and watch him with the king of the ring tournament watch Queen Sharmel celebrations on ringside. When some one celebrates your success as hard as they celebrate their own that’s special.
